“Adjusted Term SOFR” means, for purposes of any calculation, the rate per annum equal to (a) Term
SOFR for such calculation plus (b) the SOFR Adjustment for such Interest Period; provided that, if Adjusted Term SOFR as so determined shall ever be less than the Floor, then Adjusted Term SOFR shall be deemed to be the Floor.

 “Adjusted Term SOFR Borrowing” means, as to any Borrowing, the Adjusted Term SOFR Loans comprising such
Borrowing. 
 “Adjusted Term SOFR Loan” means a Loan that bears interest at a rate based on Adjusted Term

“Affiliate” shall not include any Person that constitutes an Investment held by any such Person in the ordinary course of business (other than Subsidiaries or Restricted Investments). In no event shall the Administrative Agent, the
Collateral Agent or any Lender be deemed an Affiliate of the Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries as a result of their relationship under this Agreement. 

“Affiliate Agreements” means, collectively, (a) the Investment Advisory Agreement, dated as of
February 3, 2022, between the Borrower and Oaktree Fund Advisors, LLC and (b) the Administration Agreement, dated as of February 3, 2022, between the Borrower and Oaktree Fund Administration, LLC.

Rate, Overnight Bank Funding Rate, Daily Simple SOFR or Adjusted Term SOFR shall be effective from and including the effective date of such change in the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate, Overnight Bank Funding Rate, Daily Simple SOFR or

respect to any foreign Portfolio Investment, any foreign bank or broker-dealer of internationally recognized standing or an Affiliate thereof, and (b) in the case of a U.S. Government Security, any primary dealer in U.S. Government Securities,

Agent in its reasonable determination. 
 “Approved Third-Party Appraiser” means any independent nationally
recognized third-party appraisal firm (a) designated by the Borrower in writing to the Administrative Agent (which designation shall be accompanied by a copy of a resolution of the Directing Body of the Borrower that such firm has been approved
by the Borrower for purposes of assisting the Directing Body of the Borrower in making valuations of portfolio assets to determine the Borrower’s compliance with the applicable provisions of the Investment Company Act) and (b) acceptable
to the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion; provided that, if any proposed appraiser requests or requires a non-reliance letter, confidentiality agreement or similar agreement prior to
allowing the Administrative Agent to review any written valuation report, such Person shall only be deemed an Approved Third-Party Appraiser if the Administrative Agent and such Approved Third-Party Appraiser shall have entered into such a letter or
agreement. Subject to the foregoing (other than clause (b)), it is understood and agreed that, so long as the same are independent third-party appraisal firms approved by the Directing Body of the Borrower, Houlihan Lokey Howard & Zukin
Capital, Inc., Duff & Phelps LLC, Murray, Devine and Company, Lincoln Partners Advisors, LLC, Valuation Research Corporation and Stout Risius Ross, LLC are acceptable to the Administrative Agent solely to the extent they are not serving as
the Independent Valuation Provider. 
 “Asset Coverage Ratio” means, on a consolidated basis for Borrower
and its Subsidiaries, the ratio which the value of total assets, less all liabilities and indebtedness not represented by Senior Securities, bears to the aggregate amount of Senior Securities representing indebtedness of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries (all as determined pursuant to the Investment Company Act and any orders of the SEC issued to the Borrower thereunder, in each case as in effect on the Effective Date but excluding the effect of Release No. 33837/April 8, 2020). For
clarity, the calculation of the Asset Coverage Ratio shall be made in accordance with any exemptive order issued by the SEC under Section 6(c) of the Investment Company Act relating to the exclusion of any Indebtedness of any SBIC Subsidiary
from the definition 

  
 (3) 













 
of Senior Securities only so long as (a) such order is in effect, (b) no obligations have become due and owing pursuant to the terms of any Permitted SBIC Guarantee and (c) such
Indebtedness is owed to the SBA. 
 “Asset Sale” means a sale, lease or sub lease (as lessor or sublessor),
sale and leaseback, assignment, conveyance, transfer or other disposition to, or any exchange of property with, any Person, in one transaction or a series of transactions, of all or any part of any Obligor’s assets or properties of any kind,
whether real, personal, or mixed and whether tangible or intangible, whether now owned or hereafter acquired; provided, however, the term “Asset Sale” as used in this Agreement shall not include the disposition of Portfolio
Investments originated by the Borrower and immediately transferred to a Financing Subsidiary pursuant to the terms of Section 6.03(e) or 6.03(i) hereof. 

“Assignment and Assumption” means an Assignment and Assumption entered into by a Lender and an assignee (with
the consent of any party whose consent is required by Section 9.04(b)), and accepted by the Administrative Agent in the form of Exhibit A or any other form approved by the Administrative Agent.

 “Availability Period” means the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the
earlier of the Revolver Termination Date and the date of termination of the Commitments in accordance with this Agreement. 

“Available Tenor” means, as of any date of determination and with respect to the then-current Benchmark, as
applicable, (a) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate, any tenor for such Benchmark that is or may be used for determining the length of an Interest Period or (b) otherwise, any payment period for interest calculated with reference
to such Benchmark, as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement as of such date and not including, for the avoidance of doubt, any tenor for such Benchmark that is then-removed from the definition of “Interest Period” pursuant to
Section 2.12(c)(iv). 
 “Bail-In Action” means the exercise of
any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority in respect of any liability of an Affected Financial Institution. 

“Bail-In Legislation” means (a) with respect to any EEA Member
Country implementing Article 55 of Directive 2014/59/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of the European Union, the implementing law, regulation, rule or requirement for such EEA Member Country from time to time which is described in
the EU Bail-In Legislation Schedule and (b) with respect to the United Kingdom, Part I of the United Kingdom Banking Act 2009 (as amended from time to time) and any other law, regulation or rule
applicable in the United Kingdom relating to the resolution of unsound or failing banks, investment firms or other financial institutions or their affiliates (other than through liquidation, administration or other insolvency proceedings). 

“Basel III” means the agreements on capital requirements, leverage ratio and liquidity standards contained in
“Basel III: A global regulatory framework for more resilient banks and banking systems”, “Basel III: International framework for liquidity risk measurement, standards and monitoring” and “Guidance for national authorities
operating the countercyclical capital buffer” published by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision on December 16, 2010, each as amended, supplemented or restated. 

  
 (4) 













 “Benchmark” means, initially, the Adjusted Term SOFR;
provided that, if a replacement of the Benchmark has occurred pursuant to Section 2.12(c), then “Benchmark” means the applicable Benchmark Replacement to the extent that such Benchmark Replacement has
replaced such prior benchmark rate. Any reference to “Benchmark” shall include, as applicable, the published component used in the calculation thereof. 

“Benchmark Replacement” means, for any Available Tenor, the first alternative set forth in the order
below that can be determined by the Administrative Agent: 
 (a) the sum of: (i) Daily Simple SOFR and
(ii) the SOFR Adjustment; or 
 (b) the sum of: (i) the alternate benchmark rate and (ii) an
adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or zero (0)), in each case, that has been selected by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower as the replacement for such Available Tenor of such Benchmark giving due consideration to any
evolving or then-prevailing market convention, including any applicable recommendations made by the Relevant Governmental Body, for syndicated credit facilities denominated in Dollars at such time. 

If the Benchmark Replacement as determined pursuant to clause (a) or (b) above would be less than the Floor, the Benchmark
Replacement will be deemed to be the Floor for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 

“Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes” means, with respect to any Benchmark Replacement, any technical,
administrative or operational changes (including changes to the definition of “Adjusted Term SOFR”, the definition of “Alternate Base Rate”, the definition of “Business Day”, the definition of “Daily Simple
SOFR”, the definition of “Interest Period” or any similar or analogous definition (or the addition of a concept of “interest period”), the definition of “U.S. Government Securities Business Day”, timing and
frequency of determining rates and making payments of interest, timing of borrowing requests or prepayment, conversion or continuation notices, the applicability and length of lookback periods, the applicability of breakage provisions and other
technical, administrative or operational matters) that the Administrative Agent (after consultation with the Borrower) decides in its reasonable discretion may be appropriate to reflect the adoption and implementation of such Benchmark Replacement
or to permit the administration thereof by the Administrative Agent in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if the Administrative Agent decides that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively
feasible or if the Administrative Agent determines that no market practice for the administration of such Benchmark Replacement exists, in such other manner of administration as the Administrative Agent decides is reasonably necessary in connection
with the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents).

to satisfy the requirements of this definition.

to any provision hereof for such purpose), then the Borrower, Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree to enter into negotiations in good faith in order to amend such provisions of this Agreement so as to equitably reflect such change to comply
with GAAP with the desired result that the criteria for evaluating the Borrower’s financial condition shall be the same after such change to comply with GAAP as if such change had not been made; provided, however, until such
amendments to equitably reflect such changes are effective and agreed to by the Borrower, Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders, the Borrower’s compliance with such financial covenants shall be determined on the basis of GAAP as in
effect and applied immediately before such change in GAAP becomes effective. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything herein to the contrary, the Borrower covenants and agrees with the Lenders that whether or not the Borrower may at any time adopt
Accounting Standard Codification 825, all determinations relating to fair value accounting for liabilities or compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be made on the basis that the Borrower has not adopted Accounting Standard
Codification 825. In addition, notwithstanding Accounting Standards Update 2015-03, GAAP or any other matter, for purposes of calculating any financial or other covenants hereunder, debt issuance costs
shall not be deducted from the related debt obligation.

 ARTICLE II 

THE CREDITS 

SECTION 2.01. The Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender severally agrees
to make Loans in Dollars to the Borrower from time to time during the Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in (a) such Lender’s Credit Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Commitment, (b) the
aggregate Credit Exposure of all of the Lenders exceeding the aggregate Commitments or (c) a Borrowing Base Deficiency. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and
reborrow Loans. 
 SECTION 2.02. Loans and Borrowings. 

(a) Obligations of Lenders. Each Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans of the same Type made by
the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the Commitments of the
Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required. 
 (b)
Type of Loans. Subject to Section 2.12, each Borrowing shall be constituted entirely of ABR Loans or of SOFR Loans as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith. Each Loan shall be denominated in Dollars. Each
Lender at its option may make any SOFR Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan
in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 (c) Minimum Amounts. Each Borrowing shall be in an aggregate
amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof; provided that an ABR Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the total Commitments or that is required to finance the
reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.04(f). Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time. 

(d) Limitations on Interest Periods. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be
entitled to request any Adjusted Term SOFR Borrowing (or to elect to convert to or continue as an Adjusted Term SOFR Borrowing) any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested therefor would end after the Stated Maturity Date. 

SECTION 2.03. Requests for Borrowings. 

(a) Notice by the Borrower. To request a Borrowing, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request
by delivery of a signed Borrowing Request or by telephone or e-mail (in each case, followed promptly by delivery of a signed Borrowing Request) (i) in the case of an SOFR Borrowing, not later than 2:00
p.m., New York City time, three (3) U.S. Government Securities Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing or (ii) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, one Business Day before
the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each such request for a Borrowing shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery 

  
 (38) 













 
or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower. 

(b) Content of Borrowing Requests. Each request for a Borrowing (whether a written Borrowing Request, a telephonic
request or e-mail request) shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02: 

(i) the aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing; 

(ii) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day; 

(iii) whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a SOFR Borrowing; 

(iv) in the case of an Adjusted Term SOFR Borrowing, the Interest Period therefor, which shall be a period
contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period” and permitted under Section 2.02(d); and 

(v) the location and number of the Borrower’s account (or such other account(s) as the Borrower may
designate in a written Borrowing Request accompanied by information reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent as to the identity and purpose of such other account(s)) to which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the
requirements of Section 2.05. 
 (c) Notice by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders.
Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each applicable Lender of the details thereof and of the amounts of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested
Borrowing. 
 (d) Failure to Elect. If no election as to the Type of a Borrowing is specified in a Borrowing Request,
then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If an Adjusted Term SOFR Borrowing is requested but no Interest Period is specified, the requested Borrowing shall be an Adjusted Term SOFR Borrowing having an Interest Period of one
(1) month. 
 SECTION 2.04. Letters of Credit. 

(a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, in addition to the Loans provided for in
Section 2.01, the Borrower may request the Issuing Bank to issue, at any time and from time to time during the Availability Period and under the Commitments, Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars for its own account or
for the account of its designee (provided the Obligors shall remain primarily liable to the Lenders hereunder for payment and reimbursement of all amounts payable in respect of such Letter of Credit hereunder) for the purposes set forth in
Section 5.09 in such form as is acceptable to the Issuing Bank in its reasonable determination and for the benefit of such named beneficiary or beneficiaries as are specified by the Borrower. Letters of Credit issued
hereunder shall constitute utilization of the Commitments up to the aggregate amount then available to be drawn thereunder. 

(b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal or Extension. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the
amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for 

  
 (39) 













 
doing so have been approved by the Issuing Bank) to the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or
extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the
date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (d) of this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, stating that such Letter of Credit is to be issued under the Commitments, the name and address
of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify all Lenders following the issuance of any Letter of Credit. If
requested by the Issuing Bank, the Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on the Issuing Bank’s standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and
conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or entered into by the Borrower with, the Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms
and conditions of this Agreement shall control. 
 (c) Limitations on Amounts. A Letter of Credit shall be issued,
amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (for
purposes of this clause (c), the aggregate LC Exposure (including as a component of the aggregate Credit Exposure) shall be determined without giving effect to the participations therein of the Lenders pursuant to paragraph (e) of this
Section) (i) the aggregate LC Exposure of the Issuing Bank shall not exceed $25,000,000, (ii) the total Credit Exposures shall not exceed the aggregate Commitments, (iii) the Issuing Bank’s Credit Exposure shall not exceed its
Commitment and (iv) the total Covered Debt Amount shall not exceed the Borrowing Base then in effect. 
 (d)
Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the date twelve months after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, twelve months
after the then-current expiration date of such Letter of Credit, so long as such renewal or extension occurs within three months of such then-current expiration date); provided that any Letter of Credit with a
one-year term may provide (pursuant to customary “evergreen” provisions) for the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods; provided,
further, that (x) in no event shall any Letter of Credit have an expiration date that is later than the Revolver Termination Date unless the Borrower (1) Cash Collateralizes, on or prior to the date that is five (5) Business
Days prior to the Revolver Termination Date, such LC Exposure that will remain outstanding as of the close of business on the Revolver Termination Date and (2) pays in full, on or prior to the Revolver Termination Date, all commissions required
to be paid with respect to any such Letter of Credit through the then-current expiration date of such Letter of Credit and (y) no Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date after the Stated Maturity Date. 

(e) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount
thereof) by the Issuing Bank, and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank or the Lenders, the Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Lender, and each Lender hereby acquires from the Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of
Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in
respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or
termination of the Commitments, provided that no Lender 

  
 (40) 













 
shall be required to purchase a participation in a Letter of Credit pursuant to this Section 2.04(e) if (x) the conditions set forth in
Section 4.02 would not be satisfied in respect of a Borrowing at the time such Letter of Credit was issued and (y) the Required Lenders shall have so notified the Issuing Bank in writing and shall not have subsequently
determined that the circumstances giving rise to such conditions not being satisfied no longer exist. 
 In consideration
and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by the
Issuing Bank in respect of Letters of Credit promptly upon the request of the Issuing Bank at any time from the time of such LC Disbursement until such LC Disbursement is reimbursed by the Borrower or at any time after any reimbursement payment is
required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each such payment shall be made in the same manner as provided in
Section 2.05 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.05 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay
to the Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to paragraph (f), the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to
the Issuing Bank or, to the extent that the Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and the Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this
paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement. 

(f) Reimbursement. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower
shall reimburse the Issuing Bank in respect of such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on (i) the Business Day that the Borrower
receives notice of such LC Disbursement, if such notice is received prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, or (ii) the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not received
prior to such time, provided that, if such LC Disbursement is not less than $1,000,000, the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 that such
payment be financed with an ABR Borrowing in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Borrowing. 

If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each applicable Lender of the
applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. 

(g) Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph
(f) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of
validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being
untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply strictly with the terms of such Letter of Credit, and (iv) any other
event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the 

  
 (41) 













 
provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. 

None of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Bank, or any of their respective Related Parties, shall have any
liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit by the Issuing Bank or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the
preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing
thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the
Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the Issuing
Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that: 

(i) the Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the
terms of a Letter of Credit without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and may make payment upon presentation of documents that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with
the terms of such Letter of Credit; 
 (ii) the Issuing Bank shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to
decline to accept such documents and to make such payment if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and 

(iii) this sentence shall establish the standard of care to be exercised by the Issuing Bank when determining
whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof (and the parties hereto hereby waive, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any standard of care inconsistent with the foregoing). 

(h) Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Bank shall, within a reasonable time following its receipt thereof, examine
all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank shall promptly after such examination notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for
payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the
Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement. 
 (i) Interim Interest. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC
Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to
but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Loans; provided that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement within two Business Days following the date
when due pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section, then the provisions of Section 2.11(c) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuing Bank, except that
interest accrued on and after the date 

  
 (42) 













 
of payment by any Lender pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment. 

(j) Replacement of the Issuing Bank. The Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the
Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Bank. In addition to the foregoing, if a Lender becomes, and
during the period in which it remains, a Defaulting Lender, and any Default has arisen from a failure of the Borrower to comply with Section 2.17(c), then the Issuing Bank may, upon prior written notice to the Borrower and
the Administrative Agent, resign as Issuing Bank, effective at the close of business New York City time on a date specified in such notice (which date may not be less than five (5) Business Days after the date of such notice). On or after the
effective date of any such resignation, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may, by written agreement, appoint a successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Bank. At the time
any such replacement under any of the foregoing circumstances shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.10(b). From and after
the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the replaced Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and
(ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of
the Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such
replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit. 
 (k) Cash Collateralization. If the
Borrower shall be required or shall elect, as the case may be, to provide cover for LC Exposure pursuant to Section 2.04(d), Section 2.09(b), Section 2.17(c)(ii) or the
last paragraph of Article VII, the Borrower shall immediately Cash Collateralize such LC Exposure. Such Cash Collateral shall be held by the Administrative Agent in a segregated collateral account or accounts in the
name of the Escrow Agent (for the benefit of the Issuing Bank), maintained with the Escrow Account Bank (herein, collectively, the “Letter of Credit Escrow Account”); provided (i) that the Obligors shall have no control
over or interest in the Letter of Credit Escrow Account or the funds contained therein and (ii) the Letter of Credit Escrow Account shall be subject to a deposit account control agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Issuing Bank, the Escrow Agent and the Borrower. For the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower shall not have access to the funds in the Letter of Credit Escrow Account and no portion of such funds shall constitute property of the Borrower or the
Borrower’s estate. 
 SECTION 2.05. Funding of Borrowings. 

(a) Funding by Lenders. Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by
wire transfer of immediately available funds by 1:00 p.m., New York City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will make such
Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that ABR Borrowings made to finance the
reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.04(f) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Bank. 

  
 (43) 













 (b) Presumption by the Administrative Agent. Unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may
assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and, in reliance upon such assumption, the Administrative Agent may (in its sole discretion and without any
obligation to do so) make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower
severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to
the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent,
then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Nothing in this paragraph shall relieve any Lender of its obligation to fulfill its commitments hereunder, and shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower
may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. 
 SECTION 2.06.
Interest Elections. 
 (a) Elections by the Borrower for Borrowings. Subject to
Section 2.03(d), the Loans constituting each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of an Adjusted Term SOFR Borrowing, shall have the Interest Period
specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, subject to Section 2.06(e), the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a Borrowing of a different Type or to continue such Borrowing as a Borrowing of the same Type
and, in the case of an Adjusted Term SOFR Borrowing, may elect the Interest Period therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each
such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders, and the Loans constituting each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. 

(b) Notice of Elections. To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative
Agent of such election by delivery of a signed Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent or by telephone (followed promptly, but no later than the close of business on the date of such request, by a signed Interest
Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent) by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election
to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable. 
 (c)
Content of Interest Election Requests. Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02: 

(i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected
with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) of this paragraph shall be specified for each
resulting Borrowing); 
 (ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election
Request, which shall be a Business Day; 

  
 (44) 













 (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR
Borrowing or a SOFR Borrowing; and 
 (iv) if the resulting Borrowing is an Adjusted Term SOFR Borrowing, the
Interest Period therefor after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period” and permitted under Section 2.02(d). 

(d) Notice by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders. Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the
Administrative Agent shall advise each applicable Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing. 

(e) Failure to Elect; Events of Default. If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely and complete Interest Election
Request with respect to an Adjusted Term SOFR Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period therefor, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an Adjusted
Term SOFR Borrowing having an Interest Period of one (1) month. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so
notifies the Borrower, (i) any Adjusted Term SOFR Borrowing shall, at the end of the applicable Interest Period for such Adjusted Term SOFR Borrowing, be automatically converted to an ABR Borrowing, (ii) any Daily Simple SOFR Borrowing
shall immediately be automatically converted to an ABR Borrowing and (iii) the Borrower shall not be entitled to elect to convert or continue any Borrowing into a SOFR Borrowing. 

SECTION 2.07. Termination, Reduction or Increase of the Commitments. 

(a) Scheduled Termination. Unless previously terminated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, on the Revolver
Termination Date the Commitments shall automatically be reduced to an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Loans and LC Exposure of all Lenders outstanding on the Revolver Termination Date and thereafter to an amount equal to the
aggregate principal amount of the Loans and LC Exposure outstanding after giving effect to each payment of principal and each expiration or termination of a Letter of Credit hereunder; provided that, for clarity, except as expressly provided
for herein (including, without limitation, Section 2.04(e)), no Lender shall have any obligation to make new Loans or to issue, amend or renew an existing Letter of Credit on or after the Revolver Termination Date, and any
outstanding amounts shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date in accordance with Section 2.08. 

(b) Voluntary Termination or Reduction. The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the
Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.07(b) shall be in a minimum amount of at least $1,000,000 (or an amount less than $1,000,000 if the Commitments are
being reduced to zero) and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.09, the total Credit Exposures
would exceed the total Commitments. 
 (c) Notice of Voluntary Termination or Reduction. The Borrower shall notify
the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such
election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the 

  
 (45) 













 
Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned
upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. 

(d) Effect of Termination or Reduction. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each
reduction of the Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments. 
 (e)
Increase of the Commitments. 
 (i) Requests for Increase by Borrower. The Borrower may, at any
time prior to the Revolver Termination Date, propose that the Commitments hereunder be increased (each such proposed increase being a “Commitment Increase”) by notice to the Administrative Agent specifying each existing Lender
(each an “Increasing Lender”) and/or each additional lender (each an “Assuming Lender”) that shall have agreed to an additional Commitment and the date on which such increase is to be effective (the
“Commitment Increase Date”), which date shall be a Business Day at least three Business Days (or such lesser period as the Administrative Agent may reasonably agree) after delivery of such notice and at least thirty (30) days
prior to the Revolver Termination Date; provided that, subject to the foregoing, each Commitment Increase shall become effective only upon satisfaction of the following conditions: 

(A) the minimum amount of the Commitment of any Assuming Lender, and the minimum amount of the increase of the
Commitment of any Increasing Lender, as part of such Commitment Increase shall be $5,000,000 or a larger multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or, in each case, in such other amounts as agreed by the Administrative Agent); 

(B) immediately after giving effect to such Commitment Increase, the total Commitments of all of the Lenders
hereunder shall not exceed the greater of (x) $750,000,000 and (y) 150% of Stockholders’ Equity as of the Commitment Increase Date; 

(C) each Assuming Lender and the Commitment Increase shall be consented to by the Administrative Agent and the
Issuing Bank (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); 
 (D) no Default or Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing on such Commitment Increase Date or shall result from the proposed Commitment Increase; 

(E) the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be true
and correct in all material respects (other than any representation or warranty already qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect, which shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of the Commitment Increase Date as if made on and
as of such date (or, if any such representation or warranty is expressly stated to have been made as of a specific date, as of such specific date); 

(F) the Borrower shall have paid in full to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders all fees and invoiced
expenses related to this Agreement due and owing on or 

  
 (46) 













 
prior to the Commitment Increase Date, including any up-front fee due to any Lender on or prior to the Commitment Increase Date; and 

(G) if requested, the Borrower has, as applicable, executed and delivered: (x) a new promissory note
payable to the order of each Assuming Lender; or (y) a replacement promissory note payable to the order of each Increasing Lender. 

For the avoidance of doubt, no Lender shall be obligated to agree to an additional Commitment requested by the Borrower
pursuant to this Section 2.07(e). 
 (ii) Effectiveness of Commitment Increase
by Borrower. On the Commitment Increase Date for any Commitment Increase, each Assuming Lender part of such Commitment Increase, if any, shall become a Lender hereunder as of such Commitment Increase Date with a Commitment in the amount set
forth in the agreement referred to in Section 2.07(e)(ii)(y) and the Commitment of any Increasing Lender part of such Commitment Increase shall be increased as of such Commitment Increase Date to the amount set forth in the
agreement referred to in Section 2.07(e)(ii)(y); provided that: 
 (x) the
Administrative Agent shall have received on or prior to 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on such Commitment Increase Date (or on or prior to a time on an earlier date specified by the Administrative Agent) a certificate of a duly authorized
officer of the Borrower stating that each of the applicable conditions to such Commitment Increase set forth in the foregoing paragraph (i) has been satisfied; and 

(y) each Assuming Lender or Increasing Lender shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent, on or prior to
12:00 p.m., New York City time on such Commitment Increase Date (or on or prior to a time on an earlier date specified by the Administrative Agent), an agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent, pursuant to which such Lender shall, effective as of such Commitment Increase Date, undertake a Commitment or an increase of Commitment, as applicable, duly executed by such Assuming Lender or Increasing Lender, as applicable,
and the Borrower and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent. 
 Promptly following satisfaction of such conditions, the
Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders (including any Assuming Lenders) thereof and of the occurrence of the Commitment Increase Date by facsimile transmission or electronic messaging system. 

(iii) Recordation into Register. Upon its receipt of an agreement referred to in clause
(ii)(y) above executed by each Assuming Lender and each Increasing Lender part of such Commitment Increase, as applicable, together with the certificate referred to in clause (ii)(x) above, the Administrative Agent shall, if such agreement
referred to in clause (ii)(y) has been completed, (x) accept such agreement, (y) record the information contained therein in the Register and (z) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower. 

(iv) Adjustments of Borrowings upon Effectiveness of Increase. On each Commitment Increase Date, the
Borrower shall (A) prepay the outstanding Loans (if any) in full, (B) simultaneously borrow new Loans hereunder in an amount equal to such prepayment; provided that with respect to subclauses (A) and (B), (x) the
prepayment to, and borrowing from, 

  
 (47) 













 
any existing Lender shall be effected by book entry to the extent that any portion of the amount prepaid to such Lender will be subsequently borrowed from such Lender and (y) the existing
Lenders, the Increasing Lenders and the Assuming Lenders shall make and receive payments among themselves, in a manner acceptable to the Administrative Agent, so that, after giving effect thereto, the Loans are held ratably by the Lenders in
accordance with the respective Commitments of such Lenders (after giving effect to such Commitment Increase) and (C) pay to the Lenders the amounts, if any, payable under Section 2.14 as a result of any such
prepayment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless otherwise consented in writing by the Borrower, no Commitment Increase Date shall occur on any day other than the last day of an Interest Period. Concurrently therewith, the Lenders shall be deemed
to have adjusted their participation interests in any outstanding Letters of Credit so that such interests are held ratably in accordance with their Commitments as so increased. The Administrative Agent shall amend Schedule 1.01(b) to reflect
the aggregate amount of each Lender’s Commitments (including Increasing Lenders and Assuming Lenders). Each reference to Schedule 1.01(b) in this Agreement shall be to Schedule 1.01(b) as amended pursuant to this Section. 

(v) Terms of Loans issued on the Commitment Increase Date. For the avoidance of doubt, the terms and
provisions of any new Loans issued by any Assuming Lender or Increasing Lender, and the Commitment Increase of any Assuming Lender or Increasing Lender, shall be identical to the terms and provisions of Loans issued by, and the Commitments of, the
Lenders immediately prior to the applicable Commitment Increase Date. 
 SECTION 2.08. Repayment of Loans; Evidence
of Debt. 
 (a) Repayment. Subject to, and in accordance with, the terms of this Agreement, the Borrower
hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders the outstanding principal amount of the Loans and all other amounts due and owing hereunder and under the other Loan Documents on the Maturity Date.

 (b) Manner of Payment. Prior to any repayment or prepayment of any Borrowings hereunder, the Borrower shall select
the Borrowing or Borrowings to be paid and shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy or e-mail) of such selection not later than the time set forth in
Section 2.09(f) prior to the scheduled date of such repayment; provided that each repayment of Borrowings shall be applied to repay any outstanding ABR Borrowings before any other Borrowings. If the Borrower fails to
make a timely selection of the Borrowing or Borrowings to be repaid or prepaid, such payment shall be applied, first, to pay any outstanding ABR Borrowings and, second, to other Borrowings, if applicable, in the order of the remaining duration of
their respective Interest Periods (the Borrowing with the shortest remaining Interest Period to be repaid first). Each payment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in such Borrowing. 

(c) Maintenance of Records by Lenders. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice records
evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. 

(d) Maintenance of Records by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall maintain records in which it
shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type thereof and, if applicable, each Interest Period therefor, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due 

  
 (48) 













 
and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the
Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. 
 (e) Effect of Entries. The entries made in the records maintained
pursuant to paragraph (c) or (d) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence, absent manifest error, of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or
the Administrative Agent to maintain such records or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the accounts
and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. 

(f) Promissory Notes. Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event,
the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its permitted registered assigns) and in a form attached hereto as Exhibit C.
Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable
to the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its permitted registered assigns). 

SECTION 2.09. Prepayment of Loans. 

(a) Optional Prepayments. The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time (but subject to
Section 2.09(f)) to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, without premium or fee (but subject to Section 2.14), subject to the requirements of this Section. Each prepayment in part under this
Section 2.09(a) shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 or a larger multiple of $100,000 (or such lesser amount as is then outstanding). 

(b) Mandatory Prepayments due to Borrowing Base Deficiency. In the event that the amount of total Credit Exposure
exceeds the total Commitments, the Borrower shall prepay Loans (and, to the extent necessary, provide cover for Letters of Credit as contemplated by Section 2.04(k)) in such amounts as shall be necessary so that the amount
of total Credit Exposure does not exceed the total Commitments. In the event that at any time any Borrowing Base Deficiency shall exist, promptly (but in no event later than five (5) Business Days), the Borrower shall either prepay (x) the
Loans (and, to the extent necessary, provide cover for Letters of Credit as contemplated by Section 2.04(k)) so that the Borrowing Base Deficiency is promptly cured or (y) the Loans and the Other Covered Indebtedness
that is Secured Longer-Term Indebtedness in such amounts as shall be necessary so that such Borrowing Base Deficiency is promptly cured (and, as among the Loans (and Letters of Credit) and the Other Covered Indebtedness that is Secured Longer-Term
Indebtedness, at least ratably (based on the outstanding principal amount of such Indebtedness) as to payments of Loans in relation to Other Covered Indebtedness); provided, that if within such
5-Business Day period, the Borrower shall present to the Administrative Agent a reasonably feasible plan, which plan is reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, that will enable any such Borrowing
Base Deficiency to be cured within 30 Business Days of the occurrence of such Borrowing Base Deficiency (which 30-Business Day period shall include the 5 Business Days permitted for delivery of such plan),
then such prepayment or reduction shall be effected in accordance with such plan (subject, for the avoidance of doubt, to the limitations as 

  
 (49) 













 
to the allocation of such prepayments set forth above in this Section 2.09(b)); provided further, that to the extent such Borrowing Base Deficiency is a
result of the failure of the Borrowing Base to include the minimum Senior Investments required pursuant to Section 5.13(e) because of a change in either (i) the ratio of the Gross Borrowing Base to the Senior Debt
Amount or (ii) the Relevant Asset Coverage Ratio, such 30-Business Day period shall be extended by an additional 15 Business Days solely with respect to compliance with
Section 5.13(e). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall pay interest in accordance with Section 2.11(c) for so long as the Covered Debt Amount exceeds the Borrowing Base during such 30-Business Day period. For clarity, in the event that the Borrowing Base Deficiency is not cured prior to the end of such 5-Business Day period (or, if applicable, such 30-Business Day period), it shall constitute an Event of Default under clause (a) of Article VII. 

(c) [Reserved]. 

(d) Mandatory Prepayments due to Certain Events Following Availability Period. Subject to
Section 2.09(f): 
 (i) Asset Sales. In the event that any Obligor shall
receive any Net Asset Sale Proceeds at any time after the Availability Period, the Borrower shall, no later than the third Business Day following the receipt of such Net Asset Sale Proceeds, prepay the Loans in an amount equal to such Net Asset Sale
Proceeds (and the Commitments shall be permanently reduced by such amount); provided, that with respect to Asset Sales of assets that are not Portfolio Investments, the Borrower shall not be required to prepay the Loans unless and until (and
to the extent that) the aggregate Net Asset Sale Proceeds relating to all such Asset Sales are greater than $2,000,000. 

(ii) Returns of Capital. In the event that any Obligor shall receive any Net Return of Capital at any
time after the Availability Period, the Borrower shall, no later than the third Business Day following the receipt of such Net Return of Capital, prepay the Loans in an amount equal to 100% of such Net Return of Capital (and the Commitments shall be
permanently reduced by such amount). 
 (iii) Equity Issuances. In the event that the Borrower shall
receive any Cash proceeds from the issuance of Equity Interests of the Borrower (other than (x) up to $5,000,000 of proceeds in the aggregate from issuance(s) of Equity Interests to managers, partners, members, directors, officers, employees or
consultants of the Investment Advisor or (y) pursuant to any distribution reinvestment plan of the Borrower) at any time after the Availability Period, the Borrower shall, no later than the third Business Day following the receipt of such Cash
proceeds, prepay the Loans in an amount equal to 100% of such Cash proceeds, net of underwriting discounts and commissions or other similar payments and other reasonable costs, fees, premiums and expenses directly associated therewith, including,
without limitation, reasonable legal fees and expenses (and the Commitments shall be permanently reduced by such amount). 

(iv) Indebtedness. In the event that any Obligor shall receive any Cash proceeds from the issuance of
Indebtedness (excluding Hedging Agreements permitted by Section 6.01 and other Indebtedness permitted by Section 6.01(a), (e), (f), (g) and (l)) at any time after the
Availability Period, such Obligor shall, no later than the third Business Day following the receipt of such Cash proceeds, prepay the Loans in an amount equal to 100% of such Cash proceeds, net of underwriting discounts and commissions or other
similar payments and other reasonable costs, 

  
 (50) 













 
fees, commissions, premiums and expenses directly associated therewith, including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and expenses (and the Commitments shall be permanently reduced by such
amount). 
 (e) Mandatory Prepayment of Adjusted Term SOFR Loans. If the Loans to be prepaid pursuant to
Section 2.09(c)(ii) are Adjusted Term SOFR Loans, the Borrower may defer such prepayment (and permanent Commitment reduction) until the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loans, so long as the Borrower
deposits an amount equal to an amount required to be prepaid, no later than the third Business Day following the receipt of such amount, into a segregated collateral account in the name and under the dominion and control (within the meaning of Section 9-104 of the Uniform Commercial Code) of the Administrative Agent pending application of such amount to the prepayment of the Loans (and permanent reduction of the Commitments) on the last day of such
Interest Period. 
 (f) Notices, Etc. The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing or by telephone
(followed promptly by written confirmation) of any repayment or prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of a repayment or prepayment of a SOFR Borrowing under Section 2.09(a), not later than 11:00 a.m., New York
City time, three (3) U.S. Government Securities Business Days before the date of repayment or prepayment, as applicable (or, in the case of repayment, such shorter period approved by the Administrative Agent in its discretion), or (ii) in
the case of repayment or prepayment of an ABR Borrowing under Section 2.09(a), or in the case of any prepayment under Section 2.09(b) or (d), not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City
time, one (1) Business Day before the date of repayment or prepayment, as applicable (or, in the case of repayment, such shorter period approved by the Administrative Agent in its discretion). Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall
specify the repayment or prepayment date, the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be repaid or prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment;
provided, that, (1) if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.07(c), then such notice of prepayment may be revoked
if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.07(c) and (2) any such notices given in connection with any of the events specified in Section 2.09(d) may be conditioned
upon (x) the consummation of the issuance of Equity Interests or Indebtedness (as applicable) or (y) the receipt of net cash proceeds from Asset Sales or Net Returns of Capital. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a
Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the repaid or prepaid, as applicable, Borrowing. In the event the Borrower is
required to make any concurrent prepayments under both paragraph (b) and also another paragraph of this Section 2.09, any such prepayments shall be applied toward a prepayment pursuant to paragraph (b) before any
prepayment pursuant to any other paragraph of this Section 2.09. Repayments and prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.11 and shall be made in the
manner specified in Section 2.08(b). 
 (g) RIC Tax Distributions. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, Net Asset Sale Proceeds and Net Return of Capital required to be applied to the prepayment of the Loans pursuant to Section 2.09(d) shall exclude the amounts estimated in good faith by the Borrower
to be necessary for the Borrower to make distributions on account of such Net Asset Sale Proceeds and Net Returns of Capital sufficient in amount to achieve the objectives set forth in (i), (ii) and (iii) of
Section 6.05(b)(1) hereof solely to the extent that the Tax Amount in or with respect to any taxable year (or any 

  
 (51) 













 
calendar year, as relevant) is increased as a result of the receipt of such Net Asset Sale Proceeds or Net Return of Capital, as the case may be. 

SECTION 2.10. Fees. 

(a) Commitment Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment
fee, which shall accrue for the period beginning on the Effective Date to and including the earlier of the date such Lender’s Commitment terminates and the Revolver Termination Date, at a rate equal to 0.375% per annum on the daily unused
amount of the Commitment of such Lender as of the close of business on such day. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears (x) within one (1) Business Day after each Quarterly Date and (y) on the earlier of the date the
Commitments terminate and the Revolver Termination Date, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days
elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For purposes of computing commitment fees, the Commitments shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Loans and LC Exposure of all Lenders. 

(b) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each
Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin applicable to interest on SOFR Loans on the average daily amount of such Lender’s LC
Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Commitment terminates and the date
on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to the Issuing Bank a fronting fee, which shall accrue at the rate of one-half of one percent (0.50%) per annum on the average daily amount of
the aggregate LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements and for purposes of this clause (ii), determined without giving effect to the participations therein of the Lenders pursuant to
Section 2.04(e)) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as the Issuing Bank’s
standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees accrued through and including each Quarterly Date shall be payable on the
third (3rd) Business Day following such Quarterly Date, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees with respect to the Letters of
Credit shall be payable on the earlier of the Revolver Termination Date and the date on which the Commitments are otherwise terminated in accordance with the terms hereof (such earlier date, the “termination date”) and the Borrower shall
pay any such fees that have accrued and that are unpaid on the termination date and, in the event any Letters of Credit shall be outstanding that have expiration dates after the termination date, the Borrower shall prepay on the termination date the
full amount of the participation and fronting fees that will accrue on such Letters of Credit subsequent to the termination date through but not including the date such outstanding Letters of Credit are scheduled to expire. Any other fees payable to
the Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within ten (10) days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days
elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). 
 (c) Administrative Agent Fees. The Borrower agrees
to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 

  
 (52) 













 (d) Payment of Fees. All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the
dates due, in Dollars and immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of facility fees and participation fees, to the Lenders entitled thereto.
Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances absent manifest error. 
 SECTION 2.11.
Interest. 
 (a) ABR Loans. The Loans constituting each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at a rate per
annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin. 
 (b) SOFR Loans. (i) The Loans constituting
each Adjusted Term SOFR Borrowing shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to Adjusted Term SOFR for the related Interest Period for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin and (ii) if a replacement of the Benchmark has occurred
pursuant to Section 2.12(c) with respect to Adjusted Term SOFR, the Loans constituting each Daily Simple SOFR Borrowing shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to Daily Simple SOFR plus the SOFR Adjustment plus the
Applicable Margin. 
 (c) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Event of Default described in
clause (a), (b), (d) (only with respect to Section 6.07), (h) or (i) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing, or if the Covered Debt Amount exceeds the Borrowing Base
during the 5-Business Day period (or, if applicable, the 30-Business Day period) referred to in Section 2.09(b), the interest rates applicable
to the Loans shall accrue, and any fee or other amount due and payable by the Borrower hereunder shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of principal of any Loan, 2% plus the
rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided above, (ii) in the case of any Letter of Credit, 2% plus the fee otherwise applicable to such Letter of Credit as provided in Section 2.10(b) or (iii) in
the case of any fee or other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section. 

(d) Payment of Interest. Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for
such Loan in Dollars and upon termination in full of the Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or
prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Loan prior to the Maturity Date), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any
conversion of any Adjusted Term SOFR Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Borrowing shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion. 

(e) Computation. All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest
computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual
number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate and each Benchmark shall be determined by the Administrative Agent and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

SECTION 2.12. Inability to Determine Rates.  

  
 (53) 













 (a) Temporary Inability. Subject to clause (c) of this
Section 2.12, if prior to the commencement of the Interest Period for any Adjusted Term SOFR Borrowing or at any time for any Daily Simple SOFR Borrowing: 

(i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest
error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Benchmark for such Loan and (if applicable) such Interest Period; provided that no Benchmark Transition Event shall have occurred at such time; or 

(ii) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Benchmark for such Loan and (if
applicable) such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their respective Loans included in such Borrowing and, if applicable, such Interest Period; 

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone, telecopy or e-mail promptly thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (x) any obligation of such Lender
(A) to make or continue SOFR Borrowings or (B) to convert ABR Borrowings to SOFR Borrowings shall be suspended, (y) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or the continuation of any Borrowing
as, a SOFR Borrowing shall be ineffective and such Borrowing (unless prepaid) shall be continued as, or converted to, an ABR Borrowing and (z) if any Borrowing Request requests a SOFR Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR
Borrowing. Furthermore, if any SOFR Loan is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of the notice from the Administrative Agent referred to in this Section 2.12(a) with respect to the Benchmark applicable to
such SOFR Loan, then (I) in the case of an Adjusted Term SOFR Loan, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan and (II) in the case of a Daily Simple SOFR Loan, immediately, such Loan shall be converted by the
Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, an ABR Loan on such day. If the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that Daily Simple SOFR or Adjusted Term SOFR cannot be
determined pursuant to the applicable definition thereof, the Alternate Base Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to clause (d) of the definition of “Alternate Base Rate” until the
Administrative Agent revokes such determination. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted, as applicable, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to
Section 2.12. 
 (b) Illegality. Without duplication of any other rights that any Lender
has hereunder, if any Lender determines that any law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful for any Lender to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to any Benchmark,
or to determine or charge interest rates based upon any Benchmark, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in any relevant market, then, on
notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, (i) any obligation of such Lender (x) to make SOFR Loans, (y) to continue SOFR Borrowings, or (z) to convert ABR Borrowings to SOFR Borrowings shall be
suspended, and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining SOFR Borrowings the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Daily Simple SOFR or Adjusted Term SOFR component of the Alternate Base
Rate, the interest rate on which ABR Borrowings of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to clause (d) of the definition of “Alternate Base Rate”,
in each case until such Lender 

  
 (54) 













 
notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) all SOFR Borrowings of such
Lender shall automatically convert to ABR Borrowings either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Loans are Adjusted Term SOFR Loans and the Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such SOFR Borrowings to such day, or
immediately, if such Loans are Daily Simple SOFR Loans or such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such SOFR Borrowings (in which event Borrower shall not be required to pay any yield maintenance, breakage or similar fees) and (y) if
such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon Daily Simple SOFR or Adjusted Term SOFR, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Alternate Base Rate
applicable to such Lender without reference to clause (d) of the definition of “Alternate Base Rate” until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine
or charge interest rates based upon Daily Simple SOFR and Adjusted Term SOFR. Upon any such conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to
Section 2.12. 
 (c) Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein
or in any other Loan Document: 
 (i) Replacing the Benchmark. 

(A) On the earlier of (x) the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event and (y) an Early Opt-in Election, the Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any other Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. on the fifth
(5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or
any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. 

(B) At any time that the administrator of the then-current Benchmark has permanently or indefinitely ceased to
provide such Benchmark or such Benchmark has been announced by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark pursuant to public statement or publication of information to be no longer representative of the underlying market and
economic reality that such Benchmark is intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored, the Borrower may revoke any request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Loans to be made, converted or continued that
would bear interest by reference to such Benchmark until the Borrower’s receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent that a Benchmark Replacement has replaced such Benchmark, and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted
any request for a SOFR Borrowing into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to ABR Loans. During the period referenced in the foregoing sentence, (x) clause (d) of the definition of “Alternate Base Rate” will not be used
in any determination of Alternate Base Rate and (b) any outstanding affected Adjusted Term SOFR Loan shall, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan, and any outstanding affected Daily Simple SOFR Loan shall, immediately,
at the Borrower’s election prior to such day: (1) be prepaid by the Borrower on such day or (2) be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, an ABR Loan on such date. 

  
 (55) 













 (ii) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In
connection with the use, implementation or administration of a Benchmark Replacement (or, with respect to any Benchmark Replacement of Adjusted Term SOFR at any time), the Administrative Agent (in consultation with the Borrower) will have the right
to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective
without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. 

(iii) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent
will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (w) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, (x) the implementation of any Benchmark
Replacement and (y) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this
Section 2.12(c), including any determination with respect to Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event,
circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this
Agreement, or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.12(c). 

(iv) Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. At any time (including in connection with the implementation
of a Benchmark Replacement), (x) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Adjusted Term SOFR), then the Administrative Agent may remove any tenor of such Benchmark that is unavailable,
non-representative, non-compliant or non-aligned for Benchmark (including Benchmark Replacement) settings and (y) the
Administrative Agent may reinstate any such previously removed tenor for Benchmark (including Benchmark Replacement) settings. 

SECTION 2.13. Increased Costs. 

(a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall: 

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or
similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or the Issuing Bank; 

(ii) subject any Lender to any Taxes (other than Covered Taxes and Excluded Taxes) on its loans, loan
principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or 

(iii) impose on any Lender or the Issuing Bank or any market any other condition, cost or expense (other than
Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; 
 and the result of any of
the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to 

  
 (56) 













 
such Lender or the Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the Issuing Bank
hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then, upon the request of such Lender or Issuing Bank, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, in Dollars, such additional amount or amounts as will
compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 

(b) Capital and Liquidity Requirements. If any Lender or the Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding
capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any (or
would have the effect of reducing the liquidity of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any), as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of
Credit issued by the Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such
Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity position), by an amount deemed to be material by such Lender or the
Issuing Bank, then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, in Dollars, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing
Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. 
 (c) Certificates from Lenders. A certificate of a
Lender or the Issuing Bank setting forth (in reasonable detail the basis for and calculation of) the amount or amounts, in Dollars, necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in
paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be promptly delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error (it being understood that no Lender shall be required to disclose (i) any confidential or price
sensitive information or (ii) any information to the extent prohibited by applicable law). The Borrower shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days
after receipt thereof. 
 (d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to
demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that no Obligor shall be required to compensate a Lender or the
Issuing Bank pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six months prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Bank notifies the Borrower in writing of any such Change
in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to
include the period of retroactive effect thereof). 
 SECTION 2.14. Break Funding Payments. In the event of
(a) the payment of any principal of any Adjusted Term SOFR Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period therefor (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Adjusted Term SOFR Loan other than on the
last day of an Interest Period therefor, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice is permitted to be revocable under
Section 2.09(f) and is revoked in accordance herewith), or (d) the assignment as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.18(b) of any Adjusted Term


  
 (57) 













 
SOFR Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period therefor, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event.
In the case of an Adjusted Term SOFR Loan, the loss to any Lender attributable to any such event (excluding, in any event, loss of anticipated profits) shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be equal to the excess, if any,
of: 
 (i) the amount of interest that such Lender would pay for a deposit equal to the principal amount of
such Loan referred to in clauses (a), (b), (c) or (d) of this Section 2.14 denominated in Dollars for the period from the date of such payment, conversion, failure or assignment to the last day of the then current
Interest Period for such Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the duration of the Interest Period that would have resulted from such borrowing, conversion or continuation) if the interest rate payable on such
deposit were equal to the applicable Benchmark for Dollars for such Interest Period, over 
 (ii) the
amount of interest that such Lender would earn on such principal amount for such period if such Lender were to invest such principal amount for such period at the interest rate that would be bid by such Lender (or an Affiliate of such Lender) for
deposits denominated in Dollars from other banks in the relevant market for Dollars at the commencement of such period. 
 Payments under
this Section shall be made upon written request of a Lender delivered not later than thirty (30) Business Days following the payment, conversion, or failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay that gives rise to a claim under this
Section accompanied by a written certificate of such Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section (provided that such Lender shall not be required to disclose
any confidential or pricing information or any other information prohibited to be disclosed by applicable law), which certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such
certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof. 
 SECTION 2.15. Taxes. 

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under
any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, unless otherwise required by applicable law; provided that if any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an
applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Taxes from such payments, then (i) the Withholding Agent shall make such deductions or withholdings, (ii) the Withholding Agent shall timely pay the full amount
deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and (iii) if such Tax is a Covered Tax, the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions and withholdings
(including deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.15) the Administrative Agent, Lender or the Issuing Bank (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it
would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made. 
 (b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower.
In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. 

  
 (58) 













 (c) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the
Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Issuing Bank for and, within ten (10) Business Days after written demand therefor, pay the full amount of any Covered Taxes (including Covered Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts
payable under this Section 2.15) payable or paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect
thereto, whether or not such Covered Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender, by the Issuing Bank
or by the Administrative Agent (on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the Issuing Bank), shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(d) Indemnification by the Lenders. To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold
from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. Without limiting the provisions of Section 2.15(a) or (c), each Lender severally shall, and does hereby, agree to indemnify the
Administrative Agent, and shall make payable in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, (i) against any and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of
any counsel for the Administrative Agent) (collectively, “Tax Damages”) incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent by the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority as a result of the failure of the
Administrative Agent to properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of such Lender for any reason (including because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the
Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding tax ineffective) and (ii) Tax Damages attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of
Section 9.04 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any
other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph. The agreements in this paragraph shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of,
a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other obligations. 
 (e)
Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.15, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original
or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. If the Borrower fails
to pay any U.S. federal withholding Taxes that are Excluded Taxes when due to the appropriate Governmental Authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence on account of such
Excluded Taxes, the Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender for any incremental Taxes that may become payable by the Administrative Agent or such Lender as a result of such failure. 

(f) Status of Lenders. 

(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments
under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents shall deliver to the 

  
 (59) 













 
Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed
documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if requested by
the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine
whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than
such documentation set forth in Section 2.15(f)(ii)(A) or (B) or Section 2.15(g) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or
submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. 

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Borrower is a U.S. Person, 

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to
the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form
W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax; 

(B) each Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies
as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but,
in any event, only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so) whichever of the following is applicable: 
  

	 	(1)	 in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is
a party duly completed executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E, as
applicable, or any successor form establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty
and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty, 



 

	 	(2)	 duly completed executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form
W-8ECI or any successor form certifying that the income receivable pursuant to this Agreement is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States, 



  
 (60) 














	 	(3)	 in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under
Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate, signed under penalties of perjury, to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (I) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (II) a
“10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (III) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (y) duly
completed executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or
any successor form), certifying that the Foreign Lender is not a U.S. Person, or 


  

	 	(4)	 any other form as prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in
United States federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be
made, including, to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, duly completed executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY accompanied by Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E, as
applicable, a certificate substantially similar to the certificate described in Section 2.15(f)(ii)(B)(3)(x) above, Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 and/or other certification
documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable. 


 (C) any Foreign Lender shall, to
the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this
Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S.
federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. 

(g) If a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if
such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower
such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, at the time or times
prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, as may be necessary for the Administrative Agent and the Borrower to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such
Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and 

  
 (61) 













 
withhold from any such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (g), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. 

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered under this Agreement expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in
any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. 

(h) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank determines, in its sole
discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Covered Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this
Section 2.15, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section with respect to the Covered
Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and
without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank, agrees to repay the amount
paid over to the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank in the event the Administrative
Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank be
required to pay any amount to the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank in a less favorable net position after-Taxes than the Administrative Agent,
such Lender or the Issuing Bank would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such
Tax had never been paid. This paragraph (h) shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank to make available its Tax returns or its books or records (or any other information relating to its Taxes
that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person. 
 (i) Survival. Each party’s obligations
under this Section 2.15 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or replacement of, any Lender or the Issuing Bank, the termination of the Commitments and the
repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document to which the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is a party. 

(j) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.15, the term “applicable law”
includes FATCA. 
 SECTION 2.16. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment: Sharing of
Set-offs. 
 (a) Payments by the Borrower. The Borrower shall make
each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees, reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or under Section 2.13, 2.14 or 2.15, or otherwise) or under any other Loan
Document (except to the extent otherwise expressly provided therein) prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off, deduction or
counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been 

  
 (62) 













 
received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Account,
except as otherwise expressly provided in the relevant Loan Document and except payments to be made directly to the Issuing Bank as expressly provided herein and pursuant to Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and
9.03, which shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt
thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for
the period of such extension. 
 All amounts owing under this Agreement (including commitment fees, payments required under
Sections 2.13 and 2.14 or under any other Loan Document (except to the extent otherwise provided therein)) are payable in Dollars. 

(b) Application of Insufficient Payments. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the
Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, to pay interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties
entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, to pay principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with
the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties. 
 (c) Pro Rata Treatment.
Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: (i) each Borrowing shall be made from the Lenders, each payment of a commitment fee under Section 2.10 shall be made for the account of the Lenders, and each termination
or reduction of the amount of the Commitments under Section 2.07, Section 2.09 or otherwise shall be applied to the respective Commitments of the Lenders, pro rata according to the amounts of their
respective Commitments; (ii) each Borrowing shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders according to the amounts of their respective Commitments (in the case of the making of Loans) or their respective Loans that are to be included in
such Borrowing (in the case of conversions and continuations of Loans); (iii) each payment or prepayment of principal of Loans by the Borrower shall be made for the account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid
principal amounts of the Loans held by them; and (iv) each payment of interest on Loans by the Borrower shall be made for the account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on such Loans then due and payable to the
respective Lenders. 
 (d) Sharing of Payments by Lenders. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans, or participations in LC Disbursements, resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater
proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements, and accrued interest thereon then due than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for
cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate
amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and participations in LC Disbursements; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is
recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower
pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of 

  
 (63) 













 
this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements to any assignee or
participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable
law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such
Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. 
 (e) Presumptions of Payment.
Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrower will not make such
payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In
such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or
the Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent at the Federal Funds Effective Rate. 

(f) Certain Deductions by the Administrative Agent. If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by
it pursuant to Section 2.04(e), 2.05 or 2.16(e), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the
Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid. 

SECTION 2.17. Defaulting Lenders. 

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following
provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender: 
 (a) commitment fees pursuant to
Section 2.10(a) shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender to the extent, and during the period in which, such Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be
required to pay any such commitment fee that otherwise would have accrued and been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender to the extent and during the period in which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender); 

(b) the Commitment and Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders, two-thirds of the Lenders or the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to
Section 9.02, except for any amendment or waiver described in Section 9.02(b)(i), (ii), (iii) or (iv)); provided that any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the
consent of all Lenders, two-thirds of the Lenders or each affected Lender which affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other Lenders or affected Lenders (as applicable) shall require the consent of
such Defaulting Lender. 
 (c) if any LC Exposure exists at the time a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then: 

  
 (64) 













 (i) all or any part of such LC Exposure shall be reallocated
among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages but only to the extent (x) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’
Credit Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Commitments, (y) no non-Defaulting
Lender’s Credit Exposure will exceed such Lender’s Commitment, and (z) the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 are satisfied at such time (and unless the Borrower has notified the Administrative Agent at
such time, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time); 

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the
Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, within three Business Days following notice by the Administrative Agent, Cash Collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving
effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.04(k) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding; 

(iii) if the Borrower Cash Collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to
clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.10(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the period such Defaulting
Lender’s LC Exposure is Cash Collateralized; 
 (iv) if the LC Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.10(a) and Section 2.10(b) shall
be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Applicable Percentages; 

(v) if any Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither Cash Collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to this
Section 2.17(c), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder, all facility fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Lender (solely with respect to the
portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment that was utilized by such LC Exposure) and letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.10(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable
to the Issuing Bank until such LC Exposure is Cash Collateralized and/or reallocated; and 
 (vi) subject to
Section 9.16, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of
a non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation. 

(d) so long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any
Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or Cash Collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance
with Section 2.17(c), and participating interests in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with
Section 2.17(c)(i) (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein). 
 In the event that
the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Issuing Bank each agrees in writing that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then, on the date of such agreement, such Lender shall
no longer be deemed a 

  
 (65) 













 
Defaulting Lender, the Borrower shall no longer be required to Cash Collateralize any portion of such Lender’s LC Exposure Cash Collateralized pursuant to
Section 2.17(c)(ii) above, the LC Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment and such Lender shall purchase at par the portion of the Loans of the other Lenders and
take such other actions as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage in effect immediately after giving effect to such agreement, whereupon such
Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any
party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. 
 Any payment of principal, interest, fees
or other amounts received by Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 7.01 or otherwise) or received by Administrative Agent from a
Defaulting Lender, will be applied at such time or times as may be determined by Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the
payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Bank hereunder; third, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which
such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by Administrative Agent; fourth, if so determined by Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and
released pro rata in order to satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement; fifth, to the payment of any amounts owing to Lenders or the Issuing Banks as a result
of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or any Issuing Bank against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; sixth, so long as no
Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting
Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and seventh, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if: (x) such payment is a payment of the principal
amount of any Loans or L/C Disbursements in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share; and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in
Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment will be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Disbursements owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis
prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in L/C Disbursements are held by the applicable Lenders pro rata
in accordance with the Revolving Credit Exposures hereunder. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant
to this Section 2.17 are hereby deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, each Issuing Bank and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. 

SECTION 2.18. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. 

(a) Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender exercises its rights under
Section 2.12(b) or requests compensation under Section 2.13, or if the Borrower is required to pay any Covered Taxes or additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account


  
 (66) 













 
of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate a different
lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if in the sole reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment
(i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.13 or 2.15, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the circumstance giving rise to such Lender exercising its rights under
Section 2.12(b) and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any cost or expense not required to be reimbursed by the Borrower and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay
all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment. 
 (b)
Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender exercises its rights under Section 2.12(b) or requests compensation under Section 2.13, or if the Borrower is required to pay any Covered Taxes or
additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.15 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in
accordance with Section 2.18(a), or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, or if any Lender becomes a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort,
upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights
and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrower shall have
received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding
principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and
fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.13 or payments required to be made pursuant to
Section 2.15, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender
or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. 
 (c)
Defaulting Lenders. If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(e), 2.05 or 9.03(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision
hereof, (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank for the account of such Lender for the benefit of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under
such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid, and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under such Sections, in the
case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.

Section 6.02) on any asset of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. 
 SECTION 3.04.
Financial Condition; No Material Adverse Effect. 
 (a) Financial Statements. The financial statements

losses from any unfavorable commitments not reflected in such financial statements. 
 (b) No Material Adverse
Effect. Since December 31, 2021, there has not been any event, development or circumstance that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

SECTION 3.05. Litigation. There are no actions, suits, investigations or proceedings by or before any arbitrator
or Governmental Authority now pending against or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened against or affecting the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (i) as to which there is a reasonable possibility of an adverse determination and that,
if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected, individually or in the aggregate, to result in a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) that involve this Agreement or the Transactions. 

SECTION 3.06. Compliance with Laws and Agreements. Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries is in compliance with
all laws, rules, regulations, including the Investment Company Act (if applicable to such Person) and orders of any Governmental Authority applicable to it (including rules, regulations and orders issued by the SEC) or its property and all
indentures, agreements and other instruments binding upon it or its property, except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Borrower nor any
of its Subsidiaries is subject to any contract or other arrangement, the performance of which by the Borrower could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Each of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries is in compliance with its
respective Organization Documents in all material respects.

Subsidiaries has timely filed or has caused to be timely filed all material U.S. federal, state and local Tax returns that are required to be filed by it and all other material Tax returns that are required to be filed by it and has paid all

assessment. 
 SECTION 3.08. ERISA. No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when
taken together with all other such ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably expected to occur, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Borrower nor any other Obligor, nor any ERISA Affiliate, has, has
ever had or will ever have maintained, contributed to or incurred any liability with respect to any Plans or Multiemployer Plans, except as could 

  
 (69) 













 
not reasonably be expected to result in an Material Adverse Effect; provided that (i) no Plan or Multiemployer Plan shall be permitted under the prior provisions of this sentence
unless written notice thereof under Section 5.02(d) has previously been given and (ii) in the event of such a Plan or Multiemployer Plan, the Borrower shall negotiate in good faith with the Lenders regarding

the Borrower or such Subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or delivered under any Loan Document, taken as a whole, is and will be (after giving effect to all written updates provided by the Borrower to the
Administrative Agent for delivery to the Lenders from time to time) complete, true and correct in all material respects and does not and will not (after giving effect to all written updates provided by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent for
delivery to the Lenders from time to time) contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein at the time made and taken as a whole not misleading in light of
the circumstances under which such statements were made; and 
 (b) All financial projections, pro forma financial
information and other forward-looking information which has been delivered to the Administrative Agent or any Lender by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective representatives on behalf of the Borrower or such Subsidiaries
in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or delivered under any Loan Document, are based upon estimates and assumptions believed by the Borrower in good faith to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized that
(i) such projections, financial information and other forward-looking information as they relate to future events are subject to significant uncertainty and contingencies (many of which are beyond the control of the Borrower and that no
assurance can be given that such projections will be realized) and therefore are not to be viewed as fact and (ii) actual results during the period or periods covered by such projections, financial information and other forward-looking
information may materially differ from the projected results set forth therein.

account (each, a “Control Account”) and in that connection, the Borrower agrees, subject to Sections 5.08(c)(iv) and (v) below, to cause all cash and other proceeds of Portfolio Investments received by any Obligor
to be immediately deposited into a Control Account (or otherwise delivered to, or registered in the name of, the Collateral Agent) and, both prior to and following such deposit, delivery or registration such cash and other proceeds shall be
held in trust by the Borrower for the benefit and as the property of the Collateral Agent and shall not be commingled with any other funds or property of such Obligor or any other Person (including with any money or financial assets of the Borrower
in its capacity as “servicer” for a Structured Subsidiary, or any money or financial assets of a Structured Subsidiary, or any money or financial assets of the Borrower in its capacity as an “agent” or “administrative
agent” for any other Credit Facility Loans subject to Section 5.08(c)(v) below); 

(iii) cause the Financing Subsidiaries to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent such certificates and
agreements, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, as it shall determine are necessary to confirm that such Financing Subsidiary qualifies or continues to qualify as a “Structured Subsidiary” or an
“SBIC Subsidiary”, as applicable, pursuant to the definitions thereof; 
 (iv) in the case of any
Portfolio Investment consisting of a Credit Facility Loan that does not constitute all of the credit extended to the underlying borrower under the relevant underlying loan documents and a Financing Subsidiary holds any interest in the loans or other
extensions of credit under such loan documents, (x) not permit such Financing Subsidiary to have a participation acquired from an Obligor in such underlying loan documents and the extensions of credit thereunder or any other indirect interest
therein acquired from an Obligor; and (y) ensure that, subject to Section 5.08(c)(v) below, all amounts owing to any Obligor by the underlying borrower or other obligated party are remitted by such borrower or
obligated party (or the applicable administrative agents, collateral agents or equivalent Person) directly to a Custodian 

  
 (84) 













 
Account and no other amounts owing by such underlying borrower or obligated party are remitted to such Custodian Account; 

(v) in the event that any Obligor is acting as an agent or administrative agent under any loan documents with
respect to any Credit Facility Loan (or is acting in an analogous agency capacity under any agreement related to any Portfolio Investment) and such Obligor does not hold all of the credit extended to the underlying borrower or issuer under the
relevant underlying loan documents or other agreements, ensure that (1) all funds held by such Obligor in such capacity as agent or administrative agent are segregated from all other funds of such Obligor and clearly identified as being held in
an agency capacity (an “Agency Account”); (2) all amounts owing on account of such Credit Facility Loan or Portfolio Investment by the underlying borrower or other obligated party are remitted by such borrower or obligated party to
either (A) such Agency Account or (B) directly to an account in the name of the underlying lender to whom such amounts are owed (for the avoidance of doubt, no funds representing amounts owing to more than one underlying lender may be
remitted to any single account other than the Agency Account); and (3) within two (2) Business Days after receipt of such funds, such Obligor acting in its capacity as agent or administrative agent shall distribute any such funds belonging
to any Obligor to a Custodian Account (provided that if any distribution referred to in this clause (v) is not permitted by applicable bankruptcy law to be made within such two (2) Business Day period as a result of the bankruptcy of the
underlying borrower, such Obligor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain permission to make such distribution and shall make such distribution as soon as legally permitted to do so); and 

(vi) in the case of any Portfolio Investment held by any Financing Subsidiary, including any cash collection
related thereto, ensure that such Portfolio Investment shall not be held in any Custodian Account, or any other account of any Obligor. 

SECTION 5.09. Use of Proceeds. The Borrower will use the proceeds of the Loans and the issuances of Letters of
Credit only for general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (other than Financing Subsidiaries except as expressly permitted under Section 6.03(e) or 6.03(i)) in the ordinary course of business,
including making distributions not prohibited by this Agreement and the acquisition and funding (either directly or indirectly as permitted hereunder) of leveraged loans, mezzanine loans, high-yield securities, convertible securities, preferred
stock, common stock and other Investments, in each case to the extent otherwise permitted hereunder; provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any responsibility as to the use of any of such proceeds. No part of
the proceeds of any Loan will be used in violation of applicable law, rule or regulation or, directly or indirectly, for the purpose, whether immediate, incidental or ultimate, of buying or carrying any Margin Stock. Upon the request of the
Administrative Agent or any Lender and the first day (if any) an Obligor acquires any Margin Stock, the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent and each Lender a statement to the foregoing effect in conformity with the requirements of FR
Form G-3 or FR Form U-1, as applicable, referred to in Regulation U. Margin Stock shall be purchased by the Obligors only with the proceeds of Indebtedness not directly
or indirectly secured by Margin Stock (within the meaning of Regulation U), or with the proceeds of equity capital of the Borrower. No Obligor will directly or knowingly indirectly use the proceeds of the Loans or otherwise make available such
proceeds (I) to any Person for the purpose of financing the activities or business of or with any Person, or in any country or territory, that, at the time of such funding, is, or whose government is, the subject of any Sanctions or
(II) for any payments to any governmental official or employee, political party, official of a political party, candidate for political office, or anyone else acting in an official capacity, in order to


  
 (85) 













 
obtain, retain or direct business or obtain any improper advantage, in violation of any Anti-Corruption Laws. For the avoidance of doubt, Letters of Credit may be issued to support obligations of
any Portfolio Company; provided that the underlying obligations of such Portfolio Company to the applicable Obligors in respect of such Letters of Credit shall not be included in the Borrowing Base. 

SECTION 5.10. Status of RIC and BDC. The Borrower shall elect RIC treatment in the 2022 taxable year upon filing
applicable tax returns in 2023. Upon electing RIC treatment, the Borrower shall at all times maintain its status as a RIC under the Code. The Borrower shall at all times maintain its status as a “business development company” under the
Investment Company Act. 
 SECTION 5.11. Investment Policies. The Borrower shall at all times be in compliance
in all material respects with its Investment Policies and its Valuation Policy. 
 SECTION 5.12. Portfolio Valuation
and Diversification Etc.  
 (a) Industry Classification Groups. For purposes of this Agreement, the
Borrower shall assign each Eligible Portfolio Investment to an Industry Classification Group as reasonably determined by the Borrower. To the extent that the Borrower reasonably determines that any Eligible Portfolio Investment is not correlated
with the risks of other Eligible Portfolio Investments in an Industry Classification Group, such Eligible Portfolio Investment may be assigned by the Borrower to an Industry Classification Group that is more closely correlated to such Eligible
Portfolio Investment. 
 (b) Portfolio Valuation Etc. 

(i) Settlement-Date Basis. For purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, all
determinations of whether a Portfolio Investment is an Eligible Portfolio Investment shall be determined on a Settlement-Date Basis, provided that no such investment shall be included as an Eligible Portfolio Investment to the extent it has not been
paid for in full. 
 (ii) Determination of Values. The Borrower will conduct reviews of the value to
be assigned to each of its Eligible Portfolio Investments as follows: 
 (A) Quoted Investments External
Review. With respect to Eligible Portfolio Investments (including Cash Equivalents) traded in an active and orderly market for which market quotations are readily available (“Quoted Investments”), the Borrower shall, not less
frequently than once each calendar week, determine the market value of such Quoted Investments which shall, in each case, be determined in accordance with one of the following methodologies as selected by the Borrower (each such value, an
“External Quoted Value”): 
 (w) in the case of public and 144A securities, the average of
the most recent mid-prices as determined by at least two Approved Dealers selected by the Borrower or an Approved Pricing Service with respect to such public and 144A securities, 

(x) in the case of Credit Facility Loans, the average of the most recent
mid-prices as determined by at least two Approved Dealers selected by the Borrower or an Approved Pricing Service with respect to such Credit Facility Loans, 

  
 (86) 













 (y) in the case of any Quoted Investment traded on an
exchange, the closing price for such Eligible Portfolio Investment most recently posted on such exchange, and 

(z) in the case of any other Quoted Investment, the fair market value thereof as determined by an Approved
Pricing Service; and 
 (B) Unquoted Investments External Review. With respect to Eligible Portfolio
Investments for which market quotations are not readily available (“Unquoted Investments”): 

(x) Commencing with the quarter ending June 30, 2022, and for each calendar quarter thereafter (or such
other dates as are reasonably agreed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (provided that such testing dates shall occur not less than quarterly), each an “IVP Testing Date”), the Administrative Agent through an Independent
Valuation Provider will, solely for purposes of determining the Borrowing Base, test the values as of such IVP Testing Date of those Unquoted Investments that are Portfolio Investments included in the Borrowing Base selected by the Administrative
Agent (such selected assets, the “IVP Tested Assets” and such value, the “IVP External Unquoted Value”); provided, that the fair value of such Portfolio Investments tested by the Independent Valuation
Provider as of any IVP Testing Date shall be approximately 25% of the aggregate value of the Unquoted Investments owned by the Obligors included in the Borrowing Base (the determination of fair value for such percentage thresholds shall be based off
of the last determination of value of the Portfolio Investments pursuant to this Section 5.12); provided, further, that the Administrative Agent shall provide written notice to the Borrower, setting forth a
description of which Unquoted Investments shall be IVP Tested Assets as of such IVP Testing Date, not later than 15 days prior to the IVP Testing Date (or such later date as agreed to between the Administrative Agent and the Borrower). For the
avoidance of doubt, Unquoted Investments that are part of the Collateral but not included in the Borrowing Base shall not be subject to testing under this Section 5.12(b)(ii)(B)(x). 

(y) The Borrower shall value Unquoted Investments as of each IVP Testing Date in a manner consistent with its
“Net Asset Valuation Policy”, as the same may be amended, supplemented, waived or otherwise modified from time to time consistent with standard industry practice and in a manner not prohibited by this Agreement (the “Valuation
Policy”). The Borrower shall request an Approved Third-Party Appraiser to assist the Board of Directors of the Borrower in determining the fair market value of certain of the Unquoted Investments in the Borrowing Base that are not IVP
Tested Assets as of each IVP Testing Date selected by the Borrower (such assets, the “Borrower Tested Assets” and such value, the “Borrower External Unquoted Value”). The fair value of such Portfolio Investments
tested by the Approved Third-Party Appraiser as of any IVP Testing Date shall not be less than 35% of the aggregate value of the Eligible Portfolio Investments owned by the Obligors included in the Borrowing Base (the determination of fair value for
such 35% threshold shall be based off of the last 

  
 (87) 













 
determination of the value of the Portfolio Investments pursuant to this Section 5.12), as of each IVP Testing Date, such assistance each quarter to include providing
the Directing Body of the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) with a written independent valuation report. 

(C) Internal Review. The Borrower shall conduct internal reviews to determine the value of all Eligible
Portfolio Investments in accordance with its Valuation Policy at least once each calendar quarter, and shall conduct internal reviews with respect to the Eligible Portfolio Investments at least once each calendar week for the purpose of reviewing
and discussing the Borrower’s asset portfolio (including any known changes to the performance or value of any Investment to the extent the Borrower determines that the value of any such Portfolio Investment should be updated) (each such value
established pursuant to this clause (C), an “Internal Value”). 
 (D) Credit Agreement
Value of Quoted Investments. Subject to clause (G) of this Section 5.12(b)(ii), the “Value” of each Quoted Investment for all purposes of this Agreement shall be the lowest of (1) the Internal
Value of such Quoted Investment as most recently determined by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(C), (2) the External Quoted Value of such Quoted Investment as most recently determined pursuant to
Section 5.12(b)(ii)(A) and (3) the par or face value of such Quoted Investment. 

(E) Credit Agreement Value of Unquoted Investments. Subject to clause (G) of this
Section 5.12(b)(ii) and, as applicable, Section 5.12(b)(iii), 
 (x)
if the Internal Value of any Unquoted Investment as most recently determined by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(C) falls below the range of the Applicable External Value of such Unquoted Investment as most
recently determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(B), then the “Value” of such Unquoted Investment for all purposes of this Agreement shall be deemed to be the lower of (i) the Internal Value and
(ii) the par or face value of such Unquoted Investment; 
 (y) (i) if the Internal Value of any
Unquoted Investment as most recently determined by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(C) falls above the range of the Borrower External Unquoted Value of such Unquoted Investment as most recently determined
pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(B) (and the Applicable External Value of such Unquoted Investment is such Borrower External Unquoted Value), then the “Value” of such Unquoted Investment for all purposes of this
Agreement shall be deemed to be the lower of (i) the midpoint of the range of the Borrower External Unquoted Value and (ii) the par or face value of such Unquoted Investment. 

(ii) if the Internal Value of any Unquoted Investment as most recently determined by the Borrower pursuant to
Section 5.12(b)(ii)(C) falls more than 5% above the midpoint of the range of the IVP External Unquoted Value of such Unquoted Investment as most recently determined pursuant to
Section 5.12(b)(ii)(B) (and the Applicable External Value of such Unquoted Investment is such IVP External 

  
 (88) 













 
Unquoted Value), then the “Value” of such Unquoted Investment for all purposes of this Agreement shall be deemed to be the lower of (i) the midpoint of the range of the IVP
External Unquoted Value and (ii) the par or face value of such Unquoted Investment; and 
 (z) if the
Internal Value of any Unquoted Investment as most recently determined by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(C) is within the range of the Borrower External Unquoted Value of such Unquoted Investment (and the
Applicable External Value of such Unquoted Investment is such Borrower External Unquoted Value), or within the range of or not more than 5% above the midpoint of the range of the IVP External Unquoted Value of such Unquoted Investment (and the
Applicable External Value of such Unquoted Investment is such IVP External Unquoted Value), in each case as most recently determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(B), then the “Value” of such Unquoted Investment
for all purposes of this Agreement shall be deemed to be the lower of (i) the Internal Value and (ii) the par or face value of such Unquoted Investment, 

except that: 

(1) with respect to an Unquoted Investment for which the most recent Borrower External Unquoted Value is the
Applicable External Value, if the difference between the highest and lowest Borrower External Unquoted Value in such range exceeds an amount equal to 6% of the midpoint of such range, the “Value” of such Unquoted Investment shall instead
be deemed to be the lowest of (i) the lowest Borrower External Unquoted Value in such range, (ii) the Internal Value determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii)(C), and (iii) the par or face value of such
Unquoted Investment; and 
 (2) if an Applicable External Value with respect to an Unquoted Investment has
not been obtained, the “Value” of such Unquoted Investment shall be deemed to be equal to the lowest of (i) the Internal Value of such Unquoted Investment as determined by the Borrower pursuant to
Section 5.12(b)(ii)(C), (ii) the cost of such Unquoted Investment, until such time as the External Unquoted Value of such Unquoted Investment is determined in accordance with
Section 5.12(b)(ii)(B) as at the IVP Testing Date; and (iii) the par or face value of such Unquoted Investment. 

(F) Actions Upon a Borrowing Base Deficiency. If, based upon such weekly internal review, the Borrower
determines that a Borrowing Base Deficiency exists, then the Borrower shall, promptly and in any event within two Business Days as provided in Section 5.01(e), deliver a Borrowing Base Certificate reflecting the new amount
of the Borrowing Base and shall take the actions, and make prepayments (and, to the extent necessary, provide cover for Letters of Credit as contemplated by Section 2.04(k)), but only to the extent required by
Section 2.09(b). 

  
 (89) 













 (G) Failure to Determine Values. If the Borrower
shall fail to determine the value of any Eligible Portfolio Investment as at any date pursuant to the requirements (but subject to the exclusions) of the foregoing subclauses (A), (B), (C), (D) or (E) (or if
the Administrative Agent shall fail to determine the value of any Eligible Portfolio Investment as described in the foregoing subclause (B) as a result of any action, inaction or lack of cooperation of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates),
then the “Value” of such Eligible Portfolio Investment as at such date shall be deemed to be zero. Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, if the Administrative Agent shall fail to determine the value of any Eligible
Portfolio Investment as at any date pursuant to clause (B)(x) (except as provided above), then the “Value” of such Eligible Portfolio Investment as at such date (subject to clause (iii) below) shall be the lower of (x) the
Internal Value with respect to such Eligible Portfolio Investment and (y) the par or face value of such Eligible Portfolio Investment; provided, however, that if an Applicable External Value has been obtained with respect to such
asset for any quarterly period preceding the current quarterly testing period, then the “Value” of such Eligible Portfolio Investment will be determined as provided in clause (E) above. 

(H) [Intentionally omitted.] 

(iii) Supplemental Testing of Values; Valuation Dispute Resolutions 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent, individually or at the request of the Required
Lenders, shall at any time have the right, solely for purposes of the Borrowing Base, to request in its reasonable discretion any Unquoted Portfolio Investment included in the Borrowing Base with a value assigned by the Borrower (other than IVP
Tested Assets as of the most recent IVP Testing Date) to be independently valued by an Independent Valuation Provider for purposes of the Borrowing Base. There shall be no limit on the number of such appraisals requested by the Administrative Agent
in its reasonable discretion and, subject to Section 5.12(b)(iv)(C) below, the costs of any such valuation shall be at the expense of the Borrower. If (x) the value of any Borrower Tested Asset determined pursuant to
Section 5.12(b)(ii) is less than the value determined by the Independent Valuation Provider pursuant to this clause, then the value determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) shall
continue to be used as the “Value” for purposes of this Agreement and (y) if the value of any Borrower Tested Asset determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) is greater than the value determined by the
Independent Valuation Provider and the difference between such values is (1) less than or equal to 5% of the value determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii), then the value determined pursuant to
Section 5.12(b)(ii) shall become the “Value” of such Portfolio Investment, (2) greater than 5% and less than or equal to 20% of the value determined pursuant to
Section 5.12(b)(ii), then the “Value” of such Portfolio Investment shall become the average of the value determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii) and the value determined by the
Independent Valuation Provider, and (3) greater than 20% of the value determined pursuant to Section 5.12(b)(ii), then the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall retain an additional third-party appraiser and,
upon the completion of such appraisal, the “Value” of such Portfolio Investment shall become the average of the three valuations (with the average of the value of the Independent Valuation Provider and value determined pursuant to
Section 5.12(b)(ii) to be used until the third value is obtained). 

  
 (90) 













 (iv) Generally Applicable Valuation Provisions 

(A) The Value of any Portfolio Investment for which the Independent Valuation Provider’s value is used
shall be the midpoint of the range (if any) determined by the Independent Valuation Provider. The Independent Valuation Provider shall apply a recognized valuation methodology that is commonly accepted in the Borrower’s industry for valuing
Portfolio Investments of the type being valued and held by the Obligors. Other procedures relating to the valuation will be reasonably agreed upon by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. 

(B) All valuations shall be on a Settlement-Date Basis. For the avoidance of doubt, the value of any Portfolio
Investments determined in accordance with any provision of this Section 5.12 shall be the Value of such Portfolio Investment for purposes of this Agreement until a new Value for such Portfolio Investment is subsequently
determined in good faith in accordance with this Section 5.12. 
 (C) Subject to
the last sentence of Section 9.03(a), the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs of any valuation reasonably incurred by the
Administrative Agent under this Section 5.12 shall be at the expense of the Borrower; provided that the Borrower’s obligation to reimburse valuation costs incurred by the Administrative Agent under
Section 5.12(b)(iii) shall under no circumstances be in excess of the IVP Supplemental Cap. 

(D) The values determined by the Independent Valuation Provider shall be deemed to be “Information”
hereunder and subject to Section 9.13 hereof. 
 (E) The Administrative Agent shall
provide a copy of the final results of any valuation received by the Administrative Agent and performed by the Independent Valuation Provider or an Approved Third-Party Appraiser to any Lender within ten (10) Business Days after such
Lender’s request, except to the extent that such recipient has not executed and delivered a non-reliance letter, confidentiality agreement or similar agreement requested or required by such Independent
Valuation Provider or Approved Third-Party Appraiser, as applicable. 
 (F) The foregoing valuation
procedures shall only be required to be used for purposes of calculating the Borrowing Base and related concepts and shall not be required to be utilized by the Borrower for any other purpose, including, without limitation, the delivery of financial
statements or valuations required under ASC820 or the Investment Company Act. 
 (G) The Independent
Valuation Provider shall be instructed to conduct its tests in a manner not disruptive to the business of the Borrower in any material respect. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of its receipt of the written final results of any
such test within ten (10) Business Days after its receipt thereof and shall provide a copy of such results and the related report to the Borrower within ten (10) Business Days after the Borrower’s request. 

  
 (91) 













 (c) Investment Company Diversification Requirements. The Borrower
(together with its Subsidiaries to the extent required by the Investment Company Act) will at all times comply in all material respects with the portfolio diversification and similar requirements set forth in the Investment Company Act applicable to
business development companies. The Borrower will at all times, subject to applicable grace periods set forth in the Code, comply with the portfolio diversification and similar requirements set forth in the Code applicable to RICs. 

SECTION 5.13. Calculation of Borrowing Base. For purposes of this Agreement, the “Borrowing Base”
shall be determined, as at any date of determination, as the sum of the products obtained by multiplying (x) the Value of each Eligible Portfolio Investment (excluding any Cash Collateral) by (y) the applicable Advance Rate;
provided that: 
 (a) the Advance Rate applicable to the aggregate Value of all Eligible Portfolio
Investments in their entirety shall be 0% at any time when the Borrowing Base is composed entirely of Eligible Portfolio Investments issued by fewer than 15 different issuers; 

(b) if, as of such date, the Relevant Asset Coverage Ratio is (i) greater than or equal to 2.00:1.00, the
Advance Rate applicable to that portion of the Value of the Eligible Portfolio Investments issued by a single Portfolio Company exceeding 6% of the aggregate Value of all Eligible Portfolio Investments included in the Borrowing Base (for the
avoidance of doubt, the calculation of Value for purposes of this subclause shall be made without taking into account any Advance Rate), shall be 50% of the otherwise applicable Advance Rate; (ii) less than 2.00:1.00 and greater than or equal
to 1.75:1.00, the Advance Rate applicable to that portion of the Value of the Eligible Portfolio Investments issued by a single Portfolio Company exceeding 5% of the aggregate Value of all Eligible Portfolio Investments included in the Borrowing

that portion of the Value of the Eligible Portfolio Investments issued by a single Portfolio Company exceeding 10% of the aggregate Value of all Eligible Portfolio Investments included in the Borrowing Base (for the avoidance of doubt, the
calculation of Value for purposes of this subclause shall be made without taking into account any Advance Rate), shall be 0%; or (iii) less than 1.75:1.00, the Advance Rate applicable to that portion of the Value of the Eligible Portfolio
Investments issued by a single Portfolio Company exceeding 8% of the aggregate Value of all Eligible Portfolio Investments included in the Borrowing Base (for the 

  
 (92) 













 
avoidance of doubt, the calculation of Value for purposes of this subclause shall be made without taking into account any Advance Rate), shall be 0%; provided that, for purposes of this
Section 5.13(c), prior to July 1, 2022, the Relevant Asset Coverage Ratio shall be deemed to be greater than 2.00:1.00; 

(d) the portion of the Borrowing Base attributable to Eligible Portfolio Investments that are Performing PIK
Obligations or Performing DIP Loans shall not exceed 10% of the Borrowing Base; 
 (e) if, as of such date,
the Relevant Asset Coverage Ratio is (A) (i) greater than or equal to 2.00:1.00 or (ii) less than 2.00:1.00 and greater than or equal to 1.75:1.00 and, with respect to this subclause (ii), the Borrowing Base (without giving effect to any
adjustment required pursuant to this paragraph (e), the “Gross Borrowing Base”) is greater than or equal to 1.50 times the Senior Debt Amount, the portion of the Borrowing Base attributable to Eligible Portfolio Investments that are
Senior Investments shall be at least 35% of the Borrowing Base; (B) less than 2.00:1.00 and greater than or equal to 1.75:1.00, and the Gross Borrowing Base is less than 1.50 times the Senior Debt Amount, the portion of the Borrowing Base
attributable to Eligible Portfolio Investments that are Senior Investments shall be at least 60% of the Borrowing Base; or (C) less than 1.75:1.00, the portion of the Borrowing Base attributable to Eligible Portfolio Investments that are Senior
Investments shall be at least (i) 50% of the Borrowing Base if the Gross Borrowing Base is greater than or equal to 1.50 times the Senior Debt Amount, and (ii) 75% of the Borrowing Base if the Gross Borrowing Base is less than 1.50 times the Senior
Debt Amount; 
 (f) if, as of such date, the Relevant Asset Coverage Ratio is (i) greater than or equal
to 2.00:1.00, the portion of the Borrowing Base attributable to Eligible Portfolio Investments that are Performing High Yield Securities and Performing Mezzanine Investments shall not exceed 50% of the Borrowing Base; (ii) less than 2.00:1.00

(g) if, as of such date, the Relevant Asset Coverage Ratio is greater than or equal to 1.75:1.00, the portion
of the Borrowing Base attributable to Eligible Portfolio Investments in the (i) Largest Industry Classification Group shall not exceed 25% of the Borrowing Base, (ii) Second Largest Industry Classification Group shall not exceed 20% of the
Borrowing Base and (iii) the Third Largest Industry Classification Group shall not exceed 20% of the Borrowing Base; provided that, for purposes of Sections 5.13(g), (h) and (i), prior to July 1, 2022, the
Relevant Asset Coverage Ratio shall be deemed to be greater than 2.00:1.00; 
 (h) if, as of such date, the
Relevant Asset Coverage Ratio is less than 1.75:1.00, the portion of the Borrowing Base attributable to Eligible Portfolio Investments in each of the Industry Classification Groups that are part of the Largest Industry Classification Group, Second

For all purposes of this Section 5.13, to the extent the Borrowing Base is required to be reduced to
comply with this Section 5.13, the Borrower shall be permitted to choose the Eligible Portfolio Investments to be so removed to effect such reduction. For the avoidance of doubt, no Portfolio Investment shall be an Eligible

 For the avoidance of doubt, the categories above are intended to be indicative of the traditional investment
types. All determinations of whether a particular Portfolio Investment belongs to one category or another shall be made by the Borrower on a consistent basis with the foregoing. For example, a secured bank loan solely at a holding company, the only
assets of which are the shares of an operating company, may constitute Mezzanine Investments, but would not ordinarily constitute a First Lien Credit Facility Loan. 

“Affiliate Investment” means any Portfolio Investment in a Person in which either (i) the Borrower or any of
its Subsidiaries owns or controls more than 10% of the equity interests or (ii) is controlled by the Borrower or any Subsidiary.

 “Credit Facility Loans”
means debt obligations (including, without limitation, term loans, revolving loans, debtor-in-possession financings, the funded portion of revolving credit lines and
other similar loans and investments including interim loans, bridge loans and senior subordinated loans) that are generally provided under a syndicated loan or credit facility or pursuant to any loan agreement or other similar credit facility,

amount thereof as a result of such default; (b) as to which a default as to the payment of principal and/or interest has occurred and is continuing for a period of thirty two (32) consecutive days with respect to another material debt
obligation of the Portfolio Company under such Indebtedness which is senior or pari passu in right of payment to such Indebtedness (without regard to any grace period applicable thereto, or waiver thereof); (c) as to which the Portfolio Company
under such Indebtedness or others have instituted proceedings to have such Portfolio Company adjudicated bankrupt or insolvent or placed into receivership and such proceedings have not been stayed or dismissed or such Portfolio Company has filed for
protection under the United States Bankruptcy Code or under any foreign bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, or has had a receiver, conservator, trustee, administrator, assignee for the benefit of creditors or similar Person charged with
reorganization or liquidation of its business or custodian, appointed for it (unless, in the case of clause (b) or (c), such Indebtedness is a DIP Loan, in which case it shall not be deemed to be a Defaulted Obligation under such clause); (d)
as to which a default rate of interest has been and continues to be charged for more than 120 consecutive days, or foreclosure on collateral for such Indebtedness has been commenced and is being pursued by or on behalf of the holders thereof;

default; or (f) that the Borrower has in its reasonable commercial judgment otherwise declared to be a Defaulted Obligation. 

“DIP Loan” means a Credit Facility Loan, whether revolving or term, that is originated after the commencement of a
case under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code by a Portfolio Company, which is a debtor in possession as described in Section 1107 of the Bankruptcy Code or a debtor as defined in Section 101(13) of the Bankruptcy Code in such case (a

higher percentage with the consent of the Required Lenders) of the proceeds of such loan to be used to repay prepetition obligations owing to all or some of the same lender(s) in a “roll-up” or
similar transaction; (i) no portion of the DIP Loan is payable in consideration other than cash; and (j) no portion of the DIP Loan has been credit bid under Section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise. For the purposes of this

Portfolio Investment for such period: (i) consolidated interest charges for such period, (ii) the provision for Federal, state, local and foreign income taxes payable for such period, (iii) depreciation and amortization expense for
such period, and (iv) such other adjustments included in the definition of “EBITDA” (or similar defined term used for the purposes contemplated herein) in the relevant agreement relating to the applicable Eligible Portfolio

determined in good faith by the Borrower.

Section 1.01 of this Agreement. 
 “Eligible Portfolio Investment” has the meaning
assigned to such term in Section 1.01 of this Agreement. 
 “First Lien Credit Facility
Loan” means a Credit Facility Loan that is entitled to the benefit of a first lien and first priority perfected security interest on all or substantially all of the assets of the respective borrower and guarantors obligated in respect thereof,
and which has the most senior pre-petition priority in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, or liquidation proceedings in such collateral; provided, however, that, in the case of accounts
receivable and inventory (and the proceeds thereof), such lien and security interest may be second in priority to a Permitted Prior Working Capital Lien; and further provided that any portion (and only such portion) of such a Credit Facility Loan
which has a total first lien debt to EBITDA ratio above 4.00 to 1.00 will have the Advance Rate of a Second Lien Credit Facility Loan applied to such portion. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall a First Lien Credit Facility Loan include a

exceptions), and which has the most senior pre-petition priority in any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, or liquidation 

  
 (97)

1.00;

first out tranche, (3) any reduction of the final maturity of the first out tranche, and (4) amending or waiving any provision in the underlying loan documents that is specific to the holders of such last out tranche); and 

(d) such first out tranche is not subject to multiple drawings (unless, at the time of such drawing and after giving effect thereto, the ratio
referenced in clause (b) above is not exceeded). 
 For clarity, any last out loan that complies with subsection (a) above, but

which reserves in conformity with GAAP are provided on the books of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries, as the case may be. The charges, accruals and reserves on the books of the Borrower and any of its Subsidiaries in respect of Taxes and other
governmental charges will be adequate in accordance with GAAP. 
 SECTION 5.15. Post-Closing Matters.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, to the extent not delivered on the Effective Date, the Borrower agrees that it will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, complete each of the actions described on Schedule 5.15 as

that gives rise to such Investment (calculated at the time such Investment is made), minus (B) the aggregate amount of dividends, distributions or other payments received in cash in respect of capital or principal on account of such
Investment (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, interest or on account of taxes), provided that in no event shall the aggregate amount of any Investment be less than zero, and provided further that the amount of any Investment

Obligors having an aggregate Value in excess of 5% of the aggregate Value of all Portfolio Investments held by Obligors, not be valid and perfected (to the extent perfection by filing, registration, recordation, possession or control is required
herein or therein) in favor of the Collateral Agent (or any Obligor or any Affiliate of an Obligor shall so assert in writing), free and clear of all other Liens (other than Liens permitted under Section 6.02 or under
the respective Security Documents), except to the extent that any such loss of perfection results from the failure of the Collateral Agent to maintain possession of certificates representing securities pledged under the Guarantee and Security
Agreement; 
 (p) except for expiration or termination in accordance with its terms, any of the Security Documents shall for
whatever reason be terminated or cease to be in full force and effect in any material respect, or the enforceability thereof shall be contested by any Obligor, or there shall be any actual invalidity of any guaranty thereunder or any Obligor or any
Affiliate of an Obligor shall so assert in writing; 
 (q) the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall cause or permit the
occurrence of any condition or event that would result in any recourse to any Obligor under any Permitted SBIC Guarantee; or 

(r) the Investment Advisor shall cease to be the investment advisor of the Borrower; 

then, and in every such event (other than an event described in clause (h), (i) or (j) of this Article), and at any time thereafter
during the continuance of such event, the Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders shall, by notice to the Borrower, take either or both of the following actions, at the same or different times: (i) terminate the
Commitments, and thereupon the Commitments shall terminate immediately and (ii) declare the Loans then outstanding to be due and payable in whole (or in part, in which case any principal not so declared to be due and payable may thereafter be
declared to be due and payable), and thereupon the principal of the Loans so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other obligations of the Borrower accrued hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents, shall become due and payable immediately, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower; and in case of any event described in clause (h), (i) or (j) of this
Article, the Commitments shall automatically terminate and the principal of the Loans then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other obligations of the Borrower accrued hereunder and under the other


  
 (113) 













 
Loan Documents, shall automatically become due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower. 

In the event that the Loans shall be declared, or shall become, due and payable pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph then, upon
notice from the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or Lenders with LC Exposure representing more than 50% of the total LC Exposure demanding the deposit of Cash Collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall immediately Cash
Collateralize such LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to Cash Collateralize such LC Exposure shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become
immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in clause (h), (i) or (j) of this Article. 

ARTICLE VIII 
 THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT 
 SECTION 8.01. Appointment.  

(a) Appointment of the Administrative Agent. Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints the
Administrative Agent as its agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or
thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. 
 (b) Appointment of the Collateral
Agent. The Collateral Agent is hereby confirmed and reaffirmed as having been appointed as the collateral agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and in such capacity has been and is authorized to have all the rights and benefits
hereunder and thereunder (including Section 9 of the Guarantee and Security Agreement), and to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms hereof or
thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. In addition to the rights, privileges and immunities in the Guarantee and Security Agreement, the Collateral Agent has been and shall be entitled to all rights,
privileges, immunities, exculpations and indemnities of the Administrative Agent for such purpose and each reference to the Administrative Agent in this Article VIII shall be deemed to include the Collateral Agent. 

SECTION 8.02. Capacity as Lender. Each Person serving as an Agent hereunder and under any other Loan Document
shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and such Person and its Affiliates may (without having to account therefor to any other Lender) accept
deposits from, lend money to, make investments in and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not an Agent hereunder, and such Person and its Affiliates may accept fees
and other consideration from the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to the other Lenders. 

SECTION 8.03. Limitation of Duties; Exculpation. No Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those
expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting 

  
 (114) 













 
the generality of the foregoing, (a) no Agent shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
(b) no Agent shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except, solely in the case of the Administrative Agent, discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan
Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise upon receipt of and pursuant to specific instruction in writing to do so delivered by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of Lenders as is expressly provided for
herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that the Administrative Agent is not required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any
Loan Document or applicable law, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting
Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law, and (c) except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, no Agent shall have any duty to disclose, nor shall any Agent be liable for the failure to disclose, any information
relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by any Person serving as an Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or
at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by
a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to such
Agent by the Borrower or a Lender, and no Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document,
(ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions
set forth herein or therein, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien
purported to be created by the Loan Documents or the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein or therein, other than to confirm
receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall the Administrative Agent be liable or responsible in any way or manner for the failure to obtain or
receive an IVP External Unquoted Value for any asset or for the failure to send any notice required under Section 5.12(b)(ii)(B)(x). The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any
duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not (x) be obligated to ascertain,
monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or Participant or prospective Lender or Participant is a Disqualified Lender or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of
confidential information, to any Disqualified Lender. 
 SECTION 8.04. Reliance. Each Agent shall be entitled to
rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other
distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper Person. Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by or on behalf of the
proper Person or Persons, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan that by its 

  
 (115) 













 
terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent has received
notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. Each Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be
liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any
responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to any alternative or successor rate to, or replacement rate of, the London interbank offered rate (including, without
limitation, (i) Adjusted Term SOFR or Daily Simple SOFR, (ii) any such alternative, successor or replacement rate implemented pursuant to Section 2.12(c)(i), whether upon the occurrence of an Early
Opt-in Election or otherwise, and (iii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes pursuant to Section 2.12(c)(ii)). 

SECTION 8.05. Sub-Agents. Each Agent may perform any and all its duties
and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by such Agent. Each Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties
and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of any Agent and
any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as an Agent. No Agent is responsible for
the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that such
Agent acted with gross negligence, fraud, bad faith or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents. 

SECTION 8.06. Resignation; Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by
notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower not to be unreasonably withheld (provided that no such consent shall be required if an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), to appoint a successor, which is not a Disqualified Lender. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the
retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nonetheless become effective except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf
of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed and (1) the
retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and (2) the Required Lenders shall perform the duties of the Administrative Agent (and all payments and communications provided to be made by, to or
through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly) until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above in this paragraph. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative
Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged
from its duties and obligations hereunder (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this paragraph). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless
otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder or under any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Article VIII and Section 9.03 shall
continue in effect for its benefit in respect of 

  
 (116) 













 
any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as Administrative Agent. The Collateral Agent may resign in accordance with the Guarantee and Security Agreement. 

SECTION 8.07. Reliance by Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon
any Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without
reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other
Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. 
 SECTION 8.08.
Modifications to Loan Documents. Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.02(b) or 9.02(c) with respect to this Agreement, the Administrative Agent may, with the prior consent of the Required Lenders (or
such other number or percentage of Lenders as is expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents) (but not otherwise), consent to any modification, supplement or waiver under any of the Loan Documents; provided that, without the
prior consent of each Lender, no Agent shall (except as provided herein or in the Security Documents) release all or substantially all of the Collateral or otherwise terminate all or substantially all of the Liens under any Security Document
providing for collateral security, agree to additional obligations being secured by all or substantially all of such collateral security, or alter the relative priorities of the obligations entitled to the benefits of the Liens created under the
Security Documents with respect to all or substantially all of the Collateral, except that no such consent shall be required, and each Agent is hereby authorized, to release any Lien covering property that is the subject of either (x) a
disposition of property permitted hereunder (which release described in this clause (x) shall be automatic and require no further action from any party) or (y) a disposition to which the Required Lenders (or such larger number as shall be
required under Section 9.02(b) or (c)) have consented. 
 SECTION 8.09. Certain ERISA Matters.
 
 (a) Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and
(y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, each Joint Lead Arranger and their respective Affiliates, and not,
for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower or any other Obligor, that at least one of the following is and will be true: 

(i) such Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of 29 CFR §2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA) of one or more Benefit Plans in connection with the Loans, the Letters of Credit or the Commitments, 

(ii) the transaction exemption set forth in one or more PTEs, such as PTE
84-14 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers), PTE 95-60 (a class exemption for certain transactions
involving insurance company general accounts), PTE 90-1 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTE 91-38 (a
class exemption for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by in-house
asset managers), is applicable with respect to such Lender’s 

  
 (117) 













 
entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, 

(iii) (A) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager”
(within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the
Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, or 

(iv) such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Administrative
Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Lender. 
 (b) In addition, unless either (i) subclause (i) in the immediately
preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender or (ii) such Lender has provided another representation, warranty and covenant as provided in subclause (iv) in the immediately preceding clause (a), such Lender further
(x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit
of, the Administrative Agent and each Joint Lead Arranger and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower or any other Obligor, that none of the Administrative Agent, any Joint Lead
Arranger or any of their respective Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender involved in such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the
Commitments and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related to hereto or thereto). 

SECTION 8.10. Agents(a) . None of the Syndication Agent, any
Co-Documentation Agent or any Lead Arranger shall have obligations or duties whatsoever in such capacity under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and shall incur no liability hereunder or thereunder in
such capacity, but all such persons shall have the benefit of the indemnities provided for hereunder. 
 SECTION 8.11.
Collateral Matters(a) . (a) Except with respect to the exercise of setoff rights in accordance with Section 9.08 or with respect to a Secured Party’s right to file a proof of claim in an insolvency proceeding,
no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce any Guarantee of the Guaranteed Obligations (as defined in the Guarantee and Security Agreement), it being understood and agreed that all powers,
rights and remedies under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof. 

(b) In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation thereof, no arrangements in respect of any Hedging Agreement the
obligations under which constitute Hedging Agreement Obligations, will create (or be deemed to create) in favor of any Secured Party that is a party thereto any rights in connection with the management or release of any Collateral or of the
obligations of any Obligor 

  
 (118) 













 
under any Loan Document. By accepting the benefits of the Collateral, each Secured Party that is a party to any such arrangement in respect of Hedging Agreements shall be deemed to have appointed
the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent to serve as administrative agent and collateral agent, respectively, under the Loan Documents and agreed to be bound by the Loan Documents as a Secured Party thereunder, subject to the limitations set
forth in this paragraph. 
 (c) Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be responsible for or have a
duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Administrative Agent’s or the Collateral Agent’s Lien thereon
or any certificate prepared by any Obligor in connection therewith, nor shall the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders or any other Secured Party for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of
the Collateral. 
 SECTION 8.12. Credit Bidding(a) . The Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorize the
Collateral Agent, at the direction of the Required Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the Secured Obligations (including by accepting some or all of the Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the Secured Obligations pursuant to a
deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy
Code, including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar laws in any other jurisdictions to which an Obligor is subject, or (b) at any other sale, foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted
by (or with the consent or at the direction of) the Collateral Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any applicable law and the terms of the Loan Documents. In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the
Secured Obligations owed to the Secured Parties shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid by the Collateral Agent at the direction of the Required Lenders on a ratable basis (with Secured Obligations with respect to contingent or
unliquidated claims receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a ratable basis that shall vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount used in allocating
the contingent interests) for the asset or assets so purchased (or for the equity interests or debt instruments of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are issued in connection with such purchase). In connection with any such bid, (i) the
Collateral Agent shall be authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles and to assign any successful credit bid to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, (ii) each of the Secured Parties’ ratable interests in the Secured Obligations
which were credit bid shall be deemed without any further action under this Agreement to be assigned to such vehicle or vehicles for the purpose of closing such sale, (iii) the Collateral Agent shall be authorized to adopt documents providing
for the governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (provided that any actions by the Collateral Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, including any disposition of the assets or equity interests thereof, shall be
governed, directly or indirectly, by, and the governing documents shall provide for, control by the vote of the Required Lenders or their permitted assignees under the terms of this Agreement or the governing documents of the applicable acquisition
vehicle or vehicles, as the case may be, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on actions by the Required Lenders contained in Section 9.02 of this Agreement), (iv) the Collateral Agent
on behalf of such acquisition vehicle or vehicles shall be authorized to issue to each of the Secured Parties, ratably on account of the relevant Secured Obligations which were credit bid, interests, whether as equity, partnership, limited
partnership interests or membership interests, in any such acquisition vehicle and/or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle, all without the need for any Secured Party or acquisition vehicle to take any further action, and (v) to
the extent that Secured Obligations that are assigned to an acquisition vehicle are not used to acquire Collateral for any reason (as a result of another 

  
 (119) 













 
bid being higher or better, because the amount of Secured Obligations assigned to the acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of Secured Obligations credit bid by the acquisition vehicle or
otherwise), such Secured Obligations shall automatically be reassigned to the Secured Parties pro rata with their original interest in such Secured Obligations and the equity interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on
account of such Secured Obligations shall automatically be cancelled, without the need for any Secured Party or any acquisition vehicle to take any further action. Notwithstanding that the ratable portion of the Secured Obligations of each Secured
Party are deemed assigned to the acquisition vehicle or vehicles as set forth in clause (ii) above, each Secured Party shall execute such documents and provide such information regarding the Secured Party (and/or any designee of the Secured
Party which will receive interests in or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle) as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request in connection with the formation of any acquisition vehicle, the formulation or submission of any credit bid
or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such credit bid. 
 SECTION 8.13. Erroneous
Payments.  
 (a) If the Administrative Agent notifies a Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party, or
any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party (any such Lender, Issuing Bank, Secured Party or other recipient, a “Payment Recipient”) that the Administrative Agent has determined in its
sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding clause (b)) that any funds received by such Payment Recipient from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or
otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Lender, Issuing Bank, Secured Party or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether received as a payment, prepayment or
repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof) such Erroneous Payment shall at all
times remain the property of the Administrative Agent and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party shall (or, with respect to any
Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two Business Days thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or
portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such
Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on
interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Payment Recipient under this clause (a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. 

(b) Without limiting immediately preceding clause (a), each Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party, or any Person who
has received funds on behalf of a Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party such Lender or Issuing Bank, hereby further agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of
principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment
sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any
of its Affiliates), or (z) that such Lender, Issuing Bank or 

  
 (120) 













 
Secured Party, or other such recipient, otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) in each case: 

(i) (A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error shall be
presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Administrative Agent to the contrary) or (B) an error has been made (in the case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such payment,
prepayment or repayment; and 
 (ii) such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party shall (and shall cause any
other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge of such error) notify the Administrative Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the
details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 8.13(b). 

(c) Each Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off, net and apply any and
all amounts at any time owing to such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party from any source, against any amount
due to the Administrative Agent under immediately preceding clause (a) or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement. 

(d) In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Administrative Agent for any reason,
after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent in accordance with immediately preceding clause (a), from any Lender or Issuing Bank that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (and/or from any Payment Recipient who
received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its respective behalf) (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), upon the Administrative Agent’s notice to such Lender or Issuing Bank at any
time, (i) such Lender or Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have assigned its Loans (but not its Commitments) with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment Impacted Class”) in an amount equal to the
Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Loans (but not Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Class, the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency
Assignment”) at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by the Administrative Agent in such instance), and is hereby (together with the Borrower) deemed to execute and deliver an Assignment and
Assumption (or, to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an Approved Electronic Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and such parties are participants) with respect to such
Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and such Lender or Issuing Bank shall deliver any Notes evidencing such Loans to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, (ii) the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed to acquire
the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (iii) upon such deemed acquisition, the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall become a Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency
Assignment and the assigning Lender or assigning Issuing Bank shall cease to be a Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations
under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and its applicable Commitments which shall survive as to such assigning Lender or assigning Issuing Bank and (iv) the Administrative Agent may reflect in the Register its ownership interest
in the Loans subject to the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. The Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, subject to the restrictions on 

  
 (121) 













 
assignment otherwise set forth in this Agreement, sell any Loans acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous
Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender or Issuing Bank shall be reduced by the net proceeds of the sale of such Loan (or portion thereof), and the Administrative Agent shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against such
Lender or Issuing Bank (and/or against any recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf). For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment will reduce the Commitments of any Lender or Issuing Bank and such Commitments
shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In addition, each party hereto agrees that, except to the extent that the Administrative Agent has sold a Loan (or portion thereof) acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment
Deficiency Assignment, and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent may be equitably subrogated, the Administrative Agent shall be contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of the applicable Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured
Party under the Loan Documents with respect to each Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (the “Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights”). 

(e) The parties hereto agree that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any
Secured Obligations owed by the Borrower or any other Obligor, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative
Agent from the Borrower or any other Obligor. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, no Obligor nor any of their respective Affiliates shall have any obligations or liabilities directly or indirectly arising
out of this Section 8.13 in respect of any Erroneous Payment (other than as expressly set forth herein). The foregoing shall not limit Section 9.03(b) (but for the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that, if an Obligor has
paid principal, interest or any other amounts owed to a Secured Party, Section 9.03(b) shall not require any such Obligor to pay additional amounts that are duplicative (or by way of Section 9.03(b), effectively duplicative) of such
previously paid amounts). 
 (f) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or
claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the
Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine 

(g) Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 8.13 shall survive the resignation or
replacement of the Administrative Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender or Issuing Bank, the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Secured Obligations
(or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document. 
 SECTION 8.14. Third Party Beneficiaries. The provisions of
this Article VIII are solely for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and no Obligor will have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. 

SECTION 8.15. Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any
Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation will then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or
otherwise and 

  
 (122) 













 
irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent has made any demand on the Borrower) will be entitled and empowered (but not obligated), by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: 

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C
Obligations and all other Secured Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Secured Parties (including any claim for the reasonable compensation,
expenses, disbursements and advances of the Secured Parties and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Secured Parties under Section 2.10 and otherwise hereunder) allowed in such judicial
proceeding; and 
 (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to
distribute the same; 
 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such
judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and Issuing Bank to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent consents to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and Issuing
Banks, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent hereunder.

(iii) if to any other Lender, to it at its address (or telecopy number) set forth in its Administrative
Questionnaire. 
 Any party hereto may change its address, telecopy number or e-mail
address for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. All notices and other communications given to any party hereto in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been given on
the date of receipt. Notices delivered through electronic communications to the extent provided in paragraph (b) below, shall be effective as provided in said paragraph (b). 

(b) Electronic Communications. Notices and other communications to the Lenders and the Issuing Bank hereunder may be
delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing
shall not apply to notices to any Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.03 if such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under
such Article by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it;
provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. 
 Unless the
Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended
recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement); provided that if such notice or other


  
 (124) 













 
communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day,
and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing
clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor. 

(c) Posting of Communications. 

(i) For so long as a DebtdomainTM or equivalent
website is available to each of the Lenders hereunder, the Borrower may satisfy its obligation to deliver documents to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders under Section 5.01 by delivering one hard copy thereof to the
Administrative Agent and either an electronic copy or a notice identifying the website where such information is located for posting by the Administrative Agent on DebtdomainTM or such
equivalent website; provided that the Administrative Agent shall have no responsibility to maintain access to DebtdomainTM or an equivalent website. 

(ii) The Obligors agree that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make any
Communications (as defined below) available to the Lenders by posting the Communications on IntraLinksTM, DebtdomainTM, SyndTrak,
ClearPar or any other electronic platform chosen by the Administrative Agent to be its electronic transmission system (the “Approved Electronic Platform”). 

(iii) Although the Approved Electronic Platform and its primary web portal are secured with
generally-applicable security procedures and policies implemented or modified by the Administrative Agent from time to time (including, as of the Effective Date, a user ID/password authorization system) and the Approved Electronic Platform is
secured through a per-deal authorization method whereby each user may access the Approved Electronic Platform only on a
deal-by-deal basis, each of the Lenders and each of the Obligors acknowledges and agrees that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not
necessarily secure, that the Administrative Agent is not responsible for approving or vetting the representatives or contacts of any Lender that are added to the Approved Electronic Platform, and that there are confidentiality and other risks
associated with such distribution. Each of the Lenders and each Obligor hereby approves distribution of the Communications through the Approved Electronic Platform and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution. 

(iv) THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS
AVAILABLE”. THE APPLICABLE PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS, OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE
APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF
THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE APPLICABLE PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE


  
 (125) 













 
AGENT, ANY LEAD ARRANGER, ANY CO-DOCUMENTATION AGENT, ANY SYNDICATION AGENT OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE RELATED PARTIES (COLLECTIVELY, “APPLICABLE
PARTIES”) HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY OBLIGOR, ANY LENDER OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR
OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF ANY OBLIGOR’S OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM. 

(v) Each Lender agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that Communications have
been posted to the Approved Electronic Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender pursuant to
Section 2.03 if such Lender has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication. Each Lender agrees (A) to notify the Administrative Agent
in writing (which could be in the form of electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s email address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (B) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such
email address. 
 (vi) Each of the Lenders and Obligors agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but (except
as may be required by applicable law) shall not be obligated to, store the Communications on the Approved Electronic Platform in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s generally applicable document retention policies and procedures. 

(vii) Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to give any notice or
other communication pursuant to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such Loan Document. 

(viii) “Communications” means, collectively, any notice, demand, communication, information,
document or other material provided by or on behalf of any Obligor pursuant to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated therein which is distributed by the Administrative Agent or any Lender by means of electronic communications pursuant
to this Section, including through an Approved Electronic Platform. 
 SECTION 9.02. Waivers; Amendments.

 (a) No Deemed Waivers; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or
any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any
other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they
would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver
or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of


  
 (126) 













 
any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time.

 (b) Amendments to this Agreement. Except as set forth in the definition of Secured Longer-Term Indebtedness and
Unsecured Longer-Term Indebtedness, and subject to Section 2.12(c)(i), (ii) and (iii) and Section 9.02(c) below, neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or
agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders or by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that, subject to Section 2.17(b), no such
agreement shall 
 (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, 

(ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or
reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, 

(iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement, or any
interest thereon, or any fees or other amounts payable to a Lender hereunder, or reduce the amount or waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender
directly affected thereby, 
 (iv) change Section 2.16(b), (c) or
(d) (or other sections referred to therein to the extent relating to pro rata payments) in a manner that would alter the pro rata reduction of commitments, sharing of payments, or making of disbursements, required thereby without the
written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, 
 (v) change any of the provisions of this
Section or the percentage in the definition of the term “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination
or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender, or 
 (vi) permit the assignment
or transfer by any Obligor of any of its rights or obligations under any Loan Document without the consent of each Lender; 

provided further that (x) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of any Agent or the
Issuing Bank hereunder without the prior written consent of such affected Agent or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and (y) the consent of Lenders holding not less than two-thirds of the total Credit
Exposures and unused Commitments will be required for (A) any change adverse to the Lenders affecting the provisions of this Agreement relating to the Borrowing Base (including the definitions used therein) and/or the valuation procedures set
forth in Section 5.12, and (B) any release of any material portion of the Collateral other than for fair value or as otherwise permitted hereunder or under the other Loan Documents. 

For purposes of this Section, the “scheduled date of payment” of any amount shall refer to the date of payment of
such amount specified in this Agreement, and shall not refer to a date or other event specified for the mandatory or optional prepayment of such amount. 

  
 (127) 













 (c) Amendments to Security Documents. No Security Document nor
any provision thereof may be waived, amended or modified, except to the extent otherwise expressly contemplated by the Guarantee and Security Agreement, and the Liens granted under the Guarantee and Security Agreement may not be spread to secure any
additional obligations (including any increase in Loans hereunder, but excluding (i) any such increase pursuant to a Commitment Increase under Section 2.07(e) and (ii) any Secured Longer-Term Indebtedness
permitted hereunder) except to the extent otherwise expressly contemplated by the Guarantee and Security Agreement and except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower, and by the Collateral Agent with the
consent of the Required Lenders; provided that, subject to Section 2.17(b), (i) without the written consent of the holders of not less than two-thirds of the total Credit
Exposures and unused Commitments, no such waiver, amendment or modification to the Guarantee and Security Agreement shall (A) release any Obligor representing more than 10% of the Stockholders’ Equity from its obligations under the
Security Documents, (B) release any guarantor representing more than 10% of the Stockholders’ Equity under the Guarantee and Security Agreement from its guarantee obligations thereunder, or (C) amend the definition of
“Collateral” under the Security Documents (except to add additional collateral) and (ii) without the written consent of each Lender, no such agreement shall (W) release all or substantially all of the Obligors from their
respective obligations under the Security Documents, (X) release all or substantially all of the collateral security or otherwise terminate all or substantially all of the Liens under the Security Documents, (Y) release all or
substantially all of the guarantors under the Guarantee and Security Agreement from their guarantee obligations thereunder, or (Z) alter the relative priorities of the obligations entitled to the Liens created under the Security Documents
(except in connection with securing additional obligations equally and ratably with the Loans and other obligations hereunder) with respect to all or substantially all of the collateral security provided thereby; except that no such consent
described in clause (i) or (ii) above shall be required, and the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized (and so agrees with the Borrower) to direct the Collateral Agent under the Guarantee and Security Agreement, to (1) release any
Lien covering property (and to release any such guarantor) that is the subject of either a disposition of property permitted hereunder or a disposition to which the Required Lenders or the required number or percentage of Lenders have consented
(and such Lien shall be released automatically to the extent provided in Section 10.03(c) of the Guarantee and Security Agreement), or otherwise in accordance with Section 9.15 and (2) release
from the Guarantee and Security Agreement any Subsidiary Guarantor (and any property of such Subsidiary Guarantor) that is designated as a Financing Subsidiary in accordance with this Agreement or which ceases to be consolidated on the
Borrower’s financial statements and is no longer required to be a “Subsidiary Guarantor”, so long as in the case of this clause (2): (A) prior to and immediately after giving effect to any such release (and any concurrent acquisitions
of Portfolio Investments or payment of outstanding Loans or Other Covered Indebtedness) the Covered Debt Amount does not exceed the Borrowing Base and no Default or Event of Default exists, and the Borrower delivers to the Administrative Agent a
certificate of a Financial Officer to such effect and (B) after giving effect to such release (and any concurrent acquisitions of Portfolio Investments or payment of outstanding Loans or Other Covered Indebtedness), either (I) the amount
by which the Borrowing Base exceeds the Covered Debt Amount immediately prior to such release is not diminished as a result of such release or (II) the Borrowing Base immediately after giving effect to such release is at least 110% of the
Covered Debt Amount. 
 (d) Replacement of Non-Consenting Lender. If, in
connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent requiring (i) the consent of “each Lender” or “each Lender affected thereby,” or (ii) the consent of “two-thirds of
the holders of the total Credit Exposures and unused Commitments”, the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other necessary Lenders is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is necessary but not obtained being
referred to 

  
 (128) 













 
herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then the Borrower shall have the right, at its sole cost and expense, to replace each such Non-Consenting Lender or Lenders with one or more replacement Lenders pursuant to Section 2.18(b) so long as at the time of such replacement, each such replacement Lender consents to the
proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination. 
 (e) Ambiguity, Omission, Mistake or Typographical Error.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower acting together identify any ambiguity, omission, mistake, typographical error or other defect in any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, then the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend, modify or supplement such provision to cure such ambiguity, omission, mistake, typographical error or other defect, and such amendment shall become effective without any further
action or consent of any other party to this Agreement. 
 SECTION 9.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage
Waiver. 
 (a) Costs and Expenses. The Borrower shall pay all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses incurred (i) by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and their Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and
disbursements of one outside counsel and of any necessary special and/or local counsel for the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent), in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation of this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated) including all costs and expenses of the
Independent Valuation Provider, (ii) by the Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder, (iii) by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral
Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender, (including fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender), in connection with the administration (other than internal overhead
charges), enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such
out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect thereof and (iv) in connection with any filing, registration, recording
or perfection of any security interest contemplated by any Security Document or any other document referred to therein. Unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower shall not be responsible for the reimbursement of any
fees, costs and expenses of the Independent Valuation Provider incurred pursuant to 5.12(b)(iii) in excess of $200,000 in the aggregate incurred for all such fees, costs and expenses in any
12-month period (the “IVP Supplemental Cap”). 
 (b)
Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an
“Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (other than Taxes or Other Taxes which shall only be indemnified by the Borrower to the extent
provided in Section 2.15), including the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any
Indemnitee (other than the allocated costs of internal counsel), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any agreement or instrument
contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other 

  
 (129) 













 
transactions contemplated hereby (including any arrangement entered into with an Independent Valuation Provider), (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom
(including any refusal by the Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit) or (iii) any actual or
prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding (including any investigation or inquiry) relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and whether brought by the Borrower, any Indemnitee or a third
party and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from (x) the willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Indemnitee, (y) a material breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder
or under any other Loan Document or (z) a claim between any Indemnitee or Indemnitees, on the one hand, and any other Indemnitee or Indemnitees, on the other hand (other than (1) any dispute involving claims against the Administrative
Agent or the Issuing Bank, in each case in their respective capacities as such, and (2) claims arising out of any act or omission by the Borrower and/or its Related Parties). 

The Borrower shall not be liable to any Indemnitee for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to
direct or actual damages (other than in respect of any such damages incurred or paid by an Indemnitee to a third party)) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of the Transactions asserted by an Indemnitee against the Borrower or any
other Obligor; provided that the foregoing limitation shall not be deemed to impair or affect the obligations of the Borrower under the preceding provisions of this subsection. 

(c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the
Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section (and without limiting its obligation to do so) or to the extent that the fees, costs and expenses of the Independent Valuation Provider incurred pursuant
to Section 5.12(b)(iii) exceed the IVP Supplemental Cap for any 12-month period (provided that prior to incurring expenses in excess of the IVP Supplemental Cap, the Administrative
Agent shall have afforded the Lenders an opportunity to consult with the Administrative Agent regarding such expenses), each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such Lender’s
Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or
related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank in its capacity as such or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for any Agent (or any sub-agent) in connection with such capacity. 
 (d) Waiver of Consequential Damages,
Etc. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or
actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee shall be
liable for any damages arising from the use by unauthorized Persons of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, except to the extent caused by the willful misconduct 

  
 (130) 













 
or gross negligence of such Indemnitee, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. 

(e) Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor. 

(f) No Fiduciary Relationship. Each Agent, each Lender and their respective Affiliates (collectively, solely for
purposes of this paragraph, the “Lenders”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, their stockholders and/or their affiliates. The Borrower, on behalf of itself and each of its
Subsidiaries, agrees that nothing in the Loan Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between the Lender, on the one hand, and the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries, its stockholders or its Affiliates, on the other. The Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries each acknowledge and agree that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies
hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on the other, and (ii) in connection therewith and with
the process leading thereto, (x) except as otherwise expressly provided in any of the Loan Documents, no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, any of their stockholders
or affiliates (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, their stockholders or their affiliates on other matters) and (y) each Lender is acting hereunder solely
as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, their management or stockholders. The Borrower and each Obligor each acknowledge and agree that it has consulted legal and financial advisors to the extent it
deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. The Borrower and each Obligor each agree that it will not claim that any Lender has rendered
advisory services hereunder of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary duty to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case, in connection with such transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto. 

SECTION 9.04. Successors and Assigns. 

(a) Assignments Generally. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or
obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights
or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Lender which is not in accordance with this Section shall be treated as provided in the last sentence of
Section 9.04(b)(iii)). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any
Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or
claim under or by reason of this Agreement. 
 (b) Assignments by Lenders. 

  
 (131) 













 (i) Assignments Generally. Subject to the conditions
set forth in clause (ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans and LC Exposure at the time owing to
it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) of: 

(A) the Borrower; provided that (i) no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a
Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, or, if a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee, and (ii) the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by
written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received written notice thereof; and 

(B) the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank; provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent
or the Issuing Bank shall be required for an assignment by a Lender to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender with prior written notice by such assigning Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Borrower’s consent shall be required with
respect to an assignment to any Disqualified Lender. The Administrative Agent shall provide, and the Borrower hereby expressly authorizes the Administrative Agent to provide, the Disqualified Lender list to each Lender requesting the same. 

(ii) Certain Conditions to Assignments. Assignments shall be subject to the following additional
conditions: 
 (A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an
assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans and LC Exposure, the amount of the Commitment or Loans and LC Exposure of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date
the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1,000,000 unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consents; provided that no such
consent of the Borrower shall be required if a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; 

(B) each partial assignment of Commitments or Loans and LC Exposure shall be made as an assignment of a
proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of such Commitments and Loans and LC Exposure; 

(C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and
Assumption in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (which fee shall not be payable in connection with an assignment to a Lender or to an Affiliate of a Lender), for which the
Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall not be obligated (except in the case of an assignment pursuant to Section 2.18(b)); and 

  
 (132) 













 (D) the assignee, if it shall not already be a Lender, shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire and any tax forms required under Section 2.15. 

(iii) Effectiveness of Assignments. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph
(c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights
and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an
Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of
Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.15 and 9.03 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided that, except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the
affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or
obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with
paragraph (f) of this Section. 
 (c) Maintenance of Registers by Administrative Agent. The Administrative
Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in New York City a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a
register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount and stated interest of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the
“Registers” and each individually, a “Register”). The entries in the Registers shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders shall treat each
Person whose name is recorded in the Registers pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Registers shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the
Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
 (d) Acceptance
of Assignments by Administrative Agent. Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already
be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such
Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. 

(e) Special Purposes Vehicles. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a
“Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle other than a Disqualified Lender (an “SPC”) owned or administered by such Granting Lender, identified as such in writing from time to time by the
Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, the option to provide all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a
commitment to make any Loan by any SPC, 

  
 (133) 













 
(ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall, subject to the terms of this Agreement, make such
Loan pursuant to the terms hereof, (iii) the rights of any such SPC shall be derivative of the rights of the Granting Lender, and such SPC shall be subject to all of the restrictions upon the Granting Lender herein contained, and (iv) no
SPC shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.13 (or any other increased costs protection provision), 2.14 or 2.15. Each SPC shall be conclusively presumed to have made arrangements with its Granting
Lender for the exercise of voting and other rights hereunder in a manner which is acceptable to the SPC, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower, and each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Obligors shall be entitled to
rely upon and deal solely with the Granting Lender with respect to Loans made by or through its SPC. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by
the Granting Lender. 
 Each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this
Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding senior indebtedness of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other person in instituting against, such SPC, any
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings or similar proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof, in respect of claims arising out of this Agreement; provided that the Granting
Lender for each SPC hereby agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless each other party hereto for any loss, cost, damage and expense arising out of their inability to institute any such proceeding against its SPC. In addition, notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Section, any SPC may (i) without the prior written consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any
Loans to its Granting Lender or to any financial institutions providing liquidity and/or credit facilities to or for the account of such SPC to fund the Loans made by such SPC or to support the securities (if any) issued by such SPC to fund
such Loans (but nothing contained herein shall be construed in derogation of the obligation of the Granting Lender to make Loans hereunder); provided that neither the consent of the SPC nor of any such assignee shall be required for
amendments or waivers hereunder except for those amendments or waivers for which the consent of participants is required under paragraph (f) below, and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis (in the same manner described in
Section 9.13(b)) any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of a surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity
enhancement to such SPC. 
 (f) Participations. Any Lender may, with notice to the Borrower (which notice shall not
be required to identify the name of any Participant or include any other information), sell participations to one or more banks or other entities other than a Disqualified Lender (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to
which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or
any other Loan Document; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of such Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to


  
 (134) 













 
Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (g) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits
of Sections 2.13, 2.14 and 2.15 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including Sections 2.15(f) and (g) (it being understood that the documentation required under Sections
2.15(f) and (g) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant
agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.18 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s
request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.18 with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be
entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.16(d) as though it were a Lender hereunder. Each Lender that
sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts
and stated interest of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (each a “Participant Register”); provided, that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any
portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person
except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) and proposed Section 1.163-5(b) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in each Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded
in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as the Administrative Agent) shall
have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register. 
 (g) Limitations on Rights of Participants. A
Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.13, 2.14 or 2.15 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such
Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of
Section 2.15 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with paragraphs (c) and (f) of
Section 2.15 as though it were a Lender (it being understood that that the documentation required under Section 2.15(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender). 

(h) Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its
rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any such pledge or assignment to a Federal Reserve Bank or any other central bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security
interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. 

(i) No Assignments or Participations to the Borrower or Affiliates or Certain Other Persons. Anything in this
Section to the contrary notwithstanding, no Lender may (i) assign or participate any interest in any Commitment, Loan or LC Exposure held by it hereunder to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries without the prior consent of
each Lender, or (ii) assign any interest in any Commitment, Loan or LC Exposure held by it hereunder to a natural person (or a holding 

  
 (135) 













 
company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural person) or to any Person known by such Lender at the time of such assignment to be a
Defaulting Lender, a Subsidiary of a Defaulting Lender or a Person who, upon consummation of such assignment would be a Defaulting Lender. 

SECTION 9.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein and
in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the
making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or
knowledge of any Default or Event of Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee
or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.13, 2.14,
2.15 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or
termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. 

SECTION 9.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness; Electronic Execution. 

(a) Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties
hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees
payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract between and among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter
hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which,
when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a
signature page to this Agreement by telecopy or electronic mail shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement. 

(b) Electronic Execution of Assignments. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,”
and words of like import in any Loan Document and any amendment, consent or waiver thereof, shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect validity or
enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National
Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. 

SECTION 9.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability 

  
 (136) 













 
of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. 

SECTION 9.08. Right of Setoff. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Agents and the Lenders provided by
law, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Agent, each Lender, the Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Borrower or any other
Obligor, any such notice being waived by the Borrower (on its own behalf, on behalf of its Subsidiaries and on behalf of each Obligor) to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or
demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender, the Issuing Bank or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Obligor against any of and all the obligations of any
Obligor now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document held by such Lender or Issuing Bank, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or Issuing Bank shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such
obligations may be contingent or unmatured, or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of such Lender or Issuing Bank different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such Indebtedness. The rights of each Lender,
the Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender, the Issuing Bank or Affiliate may have; provided that in the
event that any Defaulting Lender exercises any such right of setoff, (a) all amounts so set off will be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.17 and,
pending such payment, will be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders and (b) the Defaulting Lender will provide promptly
to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and
application. 
 SECTION 9.09. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Etc. 

(a) Governing Law. This Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents (unless otherwise set forth therein) shall be
construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York. 
 (b) Submission to
Jurisdiction. The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States
District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document (unless otherwise set forth therein), or for
recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the
extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner
provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against the Borrower or its properties in
the courts of any jurisdiction. 

  
 (137) 













 (c) Waiver of Venue. The Borrower hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court
referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

 (d) Service of Process. Each party to this Agreement (i) irrevocably consents to service of process in the
manner provided for notices in Section 9.01 and (ii) agrees that service as provided in the manner provided for notices in Section 9.01 is sufficient to confer personal jurisdiction over such
party in any proceeding in any court and otherwise constitutes effective and binding service in every respect. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. 

SECTION 9.10. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT
OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE
FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION. 

SECTION 9.11. Judgment Currency. This is a loan transaction in which the specification of Dollars and payment in
New York City is of the essence, and Dollars shall be the currency of account in all events relating to Loans. The payment obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement shall not be discharged or satisfied by an amount paid in another
currency or in another place, whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise, to the extent that the amount so paid on conversion to Dollars and transfer to New York City under normal banking procedures does not yield the amount of Dollars in
New York City due hereunder. If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder into another currency (the “Other Currency”), the rate of exchange that shall be applied shall be
the rate at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase Dollars with the Other Currency on the Business Day next preceding the day on which such judgment is rendered. The obligation of the Borrower in
respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document (in this Section called an “Entitled Person”) shall, notwithstanding the rate of exchange actually
applied in rendering such judgment, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Entitled Person of any sum adjudged to be due hereunder in the Other Currency such Entitled Person may in accordance with normal
banking procedures purchase and transfer Dollars to New York City with the amount of the Other Currency so adjudged to be due; and the Borrower hereby, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, agrees to indemnify such
Entitled Person against, and to pay such Entitled Person on demand, in Dollars, the amount (if any) by which the sum originally due to such Entitled Person in Dollars hereunder exceeds the amount of Dollars so purchased and transferred.

 SECTION 9.12. Headings. Article and Section headings
and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement. 

SECTION 9.13. Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality. 

(a) Treatment of Certain Information. The Borrower acknowledges that from time to time financial advisory, investment
banking and other services may be offered or provided to the Borrower or one or more of its Subsidiaries (in connection with this Agreement or otherwise) by any Agent or Lender or by one or more subsidiaries or affiliates of such Agent or
Lender and the Borrower hereby authorizes each Agent or Lender to share any information delivered to such Agent or Lender by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement, or in connection with the decision of such Agent or Lender to
enter into this Agreement, to any such subsidiary or affiliate, it being understood that any such subsidiary or affiliate receiving such information shall be bound by the provisions of paragraph (b) of this Section as if it were an Agent
or a Lender (as applicable) hereunder. Such authorization shall survive the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. 

(b) Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent (including in its capacity as Collateral Agent), the Lenders and
the Issuing Bank agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and consultants and to its and its Affiliates’ and consultants’ respective
partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and other representatives (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such
Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it or its Affiliates (including any self-regulatory authority), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or
regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement
or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any
prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap, derivative or securitization transaction relating to the Borrower
and its obligations, or (iii) any insurer, (g) with the consent of the Borrower, (h) on a confidential basis to (i) any rating agency in connection with rating the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or the Loans and (ii) the CUSIP
Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the Loans, (i) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this
Section or (y) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender, the Issuing Bank or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower or (j) in connection with the
Lenders’ right to grant a security interest pursuant to Section 9.04(h) to the Federal Reserve Bank or any other central bank, or subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this
Section, to any other pledgee or assignee pursuant to Section 9.04(h). 
 For purposes of this Section,
“Information” means all information received from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses (including any Portfolio Investments), other than
any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by 

  
 (139) 













 
the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries after the Effective Date, such information is
clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has
exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. 

SECTION 9.14. USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the
USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Obligor, which information includes the
name and address of such Obligor and other information that will allow such Lender to identify such Obligor in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act. The Obligors shall, promptly following a request by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, provide
all documentation and other information that the Administrative Agent or such Lender requests in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including
the USA PATRIOT Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation (including, without limitation, delivery to such Lender of a Beneficial Ownership Certification). 

SECTION 9.15. Termination. Promptly (and in any event within 3 Business Days) upon the Termination Date, the
Administrative Agent shall direct the Collateral Agent to, on behalf of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders, deliver to Borrower such termination statements and releases and other documents reasonably necessary or
appropriate to evidence the termination of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and each of the documents securing the obligations hereunder as the Borrower may reasonably request, all at the sole cost and expense of the Borrower. 

SECTION 9.16. Acknowledgment and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial
Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution
arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by: 

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities
arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and 
 (b) the
effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable: 

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability; 

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such
Affected Financial Institution, its parent entity, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any
such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or 

  
 (140) 













 (iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in
connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority. 

SECTION 9.17. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document,
the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If Administrative
Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to Borrower. In determining whether the
interest contracted for, charged, or received by Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or
premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Secured
Obligations hereunder. 
 SECTION 9.18. [Intentionally omitted]. 

SECTION 9.19. Acknowledgement Regarding any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support,
through a guarantee or otherwise, for Hedging Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties hereto acknowledge
and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the
regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC
may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States): 

(a) In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”)
becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and
any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC
Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a
proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to
no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of
the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties hereto with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support. 

  
 (141) 













 (b) As used in this Section 9.19, the following terms
have the following meanings: 
 (i) “BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an
“affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. § 1841(k)) of such party. 

(ii) “Covered Entity” means any of the following: 

(A) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12
C.F.R.§ 252.82(b); 
 (B) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in
accordance with, 12 C.F.R.§ 47.3(b); or 
 (C) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in,
and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R.§ 382.2(b). 
 (iii) “Default Right” has
the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, §§ 12 C.F.R.§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.
